On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the demolition of the city wall of Trier in 2025, an exhibition at the city museum deals with the city wall and the development of the city. Starting from the remnants of the wall that came to light during excavations in the cellar of the Simeonstift during the construction work for the extension, which clearly shows the intertwining of antiquity, the Middle Ages, and modernity, the exhibition connects to the time of the wall's demolition and the present.

Hamburger Hafenvarieté
Maritime, musical, exhilarating
New Year's Eve between Wolfenbüttel, Hamburg, and Haiti

The “Hamburger Hafenvarieté” is making waves and simultaneously invites you to dream, dive in, and enjoy. Set sail for this curious show format. The combination of spectacular artistic performances and exhilarating music guarantees an unmatched and highly entertaining experience for young and old.

The wild onboard band takes the audience on a thrilling journey from the St. Pauli Landungsbrücken to the ports of this world. With musical finesse, it discovers the cultural diversity between Hamburg and Haiti in a new and un-stereotyped way.

With a wealth of humorous sailor yarns, steerman Johnny charmingly guides the passengers from one adventure to the next. A hint of poetry and sailor romance comes with graceful air and lighthouse acrobatics. Innovative juggling and slightly frivolous equilibrium reflect the pulsating atmosphere of the nightlife at the harbor.

When the heart of St. Pauli begins to beat, not only do the hula-hoops get moving. Together, the artists shake the deck and take the audience on a grand voyage.

Due to a car breakdown, the young couple Brad and Janet find shelter in a castle. There they experience the most unbelievable adventure of their still young and innocent lives. They are granted entry into the mysterious facility by a creepy butler named RiffRaff and the housemaid Magenta. These lead the couple into the ballroom, where Brad and Janet meet the eccentric castle lord shortly after: the transsexual scientist Dr. Frank’N’Furter. That evening, Frank’N’Furter hosts an extremely bizarre party to which the couple is invited. At this celebration, Frank’N’Furter wants to present his latest creation to the guests: Rocky.

Finally! After over 30 years of waiting, the absolute cult musical with its quirky characters and legendary hits like "The Time Warp" or "Sweet Transvestite" returns to the schedule of the Landestheater Coburg.

Since its premiere in London in 1973, "The Rocky Horror Show" has been one of the most successful musicals of all time and continues to fulfill its promise of being an interactive spectacle of superlatives.

Meat Loaf and his worst friend and musical mastermind Jim Steinman meet in heaven after their death. In heaven?! The rock legends never wanted to go there! There must be a mistake. So while they wait for their visa to hell, they let their lives flash before their eyes once again, reminisce, argue like old times, and realize that they can't live with each other, but also can't live without each other.
An evening about two individuals who have fully dedicated themselves to music, filled with Meat Loaf hits, passionately presented by the tribute band Meet Love, topped off with clips that humorously trace the impressive biographies of the two rock musicians. Will these two be able to escape the heavenly harp sounds and spend eternity in a hellish basement pub after all? Let the revels begin, let the fires be started...

A tribute to Loriot's dramatic works

by Ben Janssen and Elena Tzavara

For the anniversary, we present to ourselves and you an evening with works of one of the greatest German humorists: Loriot, who first staged his "Dramatic Works" at the Theater Aachen in 1985.

At the Loriot tribute "Sagen Sie jetzt nichts," you can expect a very special theater evening that dives into the world of one of the greatest German humorists. In this carefully curated selection of the most significant sketches, you will experience the subtle wit of Loriot, who has shaped the understanding of humor in the German-speaking world for decades.
Loriot was not only the cartoonist and animator of his legendary characters but also gave them his own voice. His works are deeply rooted in the collective memory. With this evening, we commemorate the artistry of a man who, with his fine, often absurd, and always unmistakable humor, brought smiles and laughter into living rooms like no other.

Sold Out!

Eight Classical Concerts

Tickets may still be available at local box offices or at the door.

Leipziger Pfeffermühle - "Schön im Eimer"

As usual, the ensemble of the Leipziger Pfeffermühle will once again be a guest at the Brunnentheater for the New Year and will present its new program "Schön im Eimer".

Better beautiful in a mess than ugly in Paris - say Meigl Hoffmann, audience favorite and cabaret artist from the Leipziger Pfeffermühle, as well as the native of Munich, Peter Percy, celebrated actor and singer. Two comic geniuses with a penchant for artistic intelligence and the courage for self-irony. Because where circumstances hold us captive, only laughter can be liberating. And these two showy characters are the kings of escaping the prison of everyday life.

SCHÖN IM EIMER is a cheerful-critical, witty-imaginative cabaret satire. Here, playfulness meets musicality and humor meets profundity. Fast-paced and amusing. Laughter and thought are allowed! In this, the two artists never claim to know better, only different - and sometimes not at all:

Has the earth's axis already shifted, or have we citizens just lost our balance? If all parties are the new center, why are the edges becoming stronger? Are we caught off guard by Olaf's turning point, or are we catching time with the wrong chancellor? Are we living beyond our means or below our possibilities? Can black-and-white thinking drive the change too colorful? Is our center a black hole and are we the ballet troupe on the event horizon?

And oddly: What's in the mess, should actually be in the trash can...

Meigl Hoffmann and Peter Percy cordially invite the audience to their comically cheerful cabaret satire! Two unconditional optimists always have the future in sight and laughter ready.

Or as the two winkingly put it: There's still room in the bucket!

Entrance from 6:00 PM

Welcome to the realm of knowledge in the Baroque era: Stepping onto creaking floorboards into the quiet grandeur of our historical library hall, one is immediately enveloped by the collective knowledge of the Early Modern period. Like stage sets in a Baroque theater, the original bookshelves jut into the space, housing around 50,000 books from all fields of knowledge. Behind unassuming book spines lie remarkable treasures, such as the first German Bible printed in America.

At the end of the 17th century, the orphanage's library was established as one of the first public libraries in Germany. Primarily through donations, book exchanges, and their own publications, the library grew so rapidly that within a few years, it was comparable to significant German university libraries. In 1728, it received its own building, which is considered the oldest surviving secular library structure in Germany. Not only in recent times has the library been visited by guests and researchers from around the world: Albrecht von Haller, Johann Joachim Winckelmann, and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe all admired its bibliophilic treasures. We present a selection of them for you in rotating cabinet exhibitions in the former reading room of the library.

10 am - 5 pm

The Art and Natural History Chamber is considered the oldest German museum room. It was established by August Hermann Francke for educational purposes and is now once again set up according to the original museum concept of the 18th century in its historical location in the attic of the Historical Orphanage.

Eighteen richly decorated collection cabinets house approximately 3000 natural specimens, curiosities, and artifacts. They provide a unique impression of a Baroque cabinet of curiosities. Unlike modern museums, the chamber follows an encyclopedic collecting approach. A distinction is made between natural specimens and artifacts. The natural specimens are divided into rocks, plants, and animals, while the artifacts are categorized into visual arts, calligraphy, coins, everyday culture, and clothing. The goal was to create a mirror image of the world: a microcosm that made the macrocosm as the wonderful creation of God tangible.

In a series of events, art projects take place around the Art and Natural History Chamber. In the so-called "Contemporary Reflections on the Art and Natural History Chamber," foundations invite artists to engage in an artistic dialogue with the chamber.

Tue-Sun 10am-5pm

Palace-like, the orphanage rises on Franckeplatz. Then as now, it is the centerpiece of the Francke Foundations. Erected in 1698 as the first building of the school city, it represents a new facet of European Baroque, combining confident representation without extravagant ornamentation and setting the tone for orphanage architecture.

Today, the orphanage is our museum and cultural center. Right from the start, two permanent exhibitions guide you through the history of the foundation and the global impact of Pietism. On the first floor, the former prayer and singing hall surprises with its bright architecture. Today, it enjoys an excellent reputation as a concert hall due to its fantastic acoustics. In the adjacent conference rooms, a photo exhibition showcases the impressive renovation work since the foundations were reestablished in 1991. The second floor is reserved for our changing special exhibitions, which provide insight into important themes of the foundation's history from both a historical and contemporary perspective. Passing through the art and natural history collections in the attic, you reach the balcony via a narrow wooden staircase. Here, a wide view opens up over the impressive ensemble with school buildings from three centuries. There is also a splendid panorama of the Old Town of Halle from here. In the basement, children can explore their own paths in the Krokoseum.

10:00 AM - 5:00 PM

What power does the word have? For Halleschen Pietismus, the word was of central importance. On the ground floor of the Historical Orphanage, we show you how August Hermann Francke's reform movement could spread around the world.

Francke developed central reformative goals of Martin Luther's with Halleschen Pietismus. His approach was as clear as it was revolutionary: Every person should find God through their own Bible reading. However, for this to happen, everyone - boys and girls alike - had to learn to read, everyone should be able to afford their own Bible and it should be printed in their own native language. Therefore, Francke established schools for all social classes, printed millions of German-language People's Bibles, and created an international network through which the Bible was translated into many other languages. His educational initiative allowed a broad population to engage with the word. In the 18th-century evangelical parsonages, the authors of the Romantic and Enlightenment periods were highly regarded. A culture of self-reflection spread in Pietism, which was reflected in diaries and personal testimonies, giving us remarkable insights into the spiritual life of people of that time. Symbolically, the power of the word is also evident in the meticulously restored pulpit from the Church of St. Ulrich in Halle, where Francke preached from 1715 and which you can admire in the exhibition.

10:00 am - 5:00 pm

4 talers and 16 groschen are considered the founding capital of the Francke Foundations. How an unparalleled school city grew from this unexpected donation to a simple pastor in Glaucha can be discovered on the ground floor of the Historical Orphanage. A multimedia installation and numerous extraordinary objects will transport you into the fascinating founding and impact history of Francke's work. Because what began with a school for the poor and an orphanage, developed in a few decades into a true reform project that was based on education: Over 2,000 students learned in various schools, specially constructed economic buildings, a hospital, and a pharmacy guaranteed the care of over 3,000 people on the premises, unique cultural-historical collections in the library and chamber of wonders were established, and Francke's ideas were spread within and outside Europe. August Hermann Francke wanted nothing less than a "world change through personal change." Discover everything he set in motion through this.

10:00 am - 5:00 pm

The demo station by Rirkrit Tiravanija is a stage-like sculpture that invites people to „demonstrate“ something. Tiravanija understands the term in a double sense – as political protest or as a demonstration of something that someone particularly excels at or enjoys. Throughout the duration of the exhibition, the demo station offers daily space for public performances.

During the event, photo and video recordings may be made, in which you may appear. By attending, you consent to these recordings being used for the communication of the event or exhibition.
