Duration: 140 mins including intermission

PRODUCTION TEAM
Puppet construction: Bernhard Leismüller
Puppet heads: Sebastian Demmel
Costume tailoring: Bernhard Leismüller
Stage design: Bettina Hummitzsch
Direction, Dramaturgy: Ralf Hechelmann

STAGING
The production consciously avoids the countless interpretations that the work has undergone in its over two-hundred-year history. The Lindauer Magic Flute takes place in a fairytale land. And this is not only because the fairytale genre strategically uses illogicalities and paradoxes to enchant literally. Each spectator is allowed and encouraged to find and invent their own story in the Magic Flute.

STAGE HISTORY
The premiere took place on September 30, 1791, at the Freihaus-Theater auf der Wieden - a Viennese suburban theater. In October 1791 alone, the Magic Flute had nearly twenty performances, and it continued to be successful in the Viennese theater's program in the following months. A year later, on October 25, 1792, it was successfully performed in Prague, followed by performances in Munich, in Frankfurt am Main in 1793, and finally in Berlin and in Weimar in 1794.

Together with the ranger of the city of Leutkirch, we will stroll through the nature reserve Moosmühle near the Leutkircher Stadtweiher.

During the walk, we will learn interesting facts about the pond, the meadows, the forests, and the animals living there. Keeping our eyes and ears open, we may be lucky to spot a very special inhabitant. We will find out on-site the role of the large animals with long fur and pointed horns in this area, and how they are involved as conservationists. Come along and listen carefully - every diligent explorer will receive a delicious surprise at the end!

Children under 14 years old only allowed when accompanied by an adult!

The Hanseatic acoustic punk trio Liedfett, also known as ballern, bügeln und feiern, will visit us again during the Cultural Summer in the courtyard. With this exuberant hybrid of punk, acoustic pop, rap, and songwriting, all it takes is one encounter and you're hooked. You won't easily forget the guys either. A mixture of an escalated school trip and a songwriter boy band is rarely experienced. Along with their beloved classics, they will also bring their latest album "Hi", a welcome gift from the Revolution Directorate!

Doors open: 7:00 PM

Already from 2004 to 2013, Rosenau, together with Theater Rampe, Theaterhaus, Literaturhaus, and Laboratorium, annually organized the "Viennese Week" festival. The idea was to focus on Vienna/Austria for a week and specifically invite cabaret artists, writers, authors, and theater productions from there to Stuttgart. The series "Wiener Blut" now picks up on this idea again. Throughout the year, various Austrian cabaret artists will present their programs at Rosenau: Social, political, and interpersonal topics are entertainingly brought to the stage in a cabaret style! And everything is a bit more biting, sinister, ironic, quirky, and often more poetic than from German territory.
The subscription consists of the following 6 events:
- 09.02.24 Benedikt Mitmannsgruber with "The strange case of Benedikt Mitmannsgruber"
- 04.04.24 Blonder Engel with "Songs that are funny and sometimes a bit sad, but that's okay"
- 19.04.24 Christine Teichmann with "Left right human rights"
- 11.09.24 Magda Leeb with "Pigging out"
- 04.10.24 Blözinger with "New Program"
- 23.10.24 Hosea Ratschiller with "HOSEA"

For centuries, mysterious events have also been reported in Freiburg, which we will investigate on this paranormal tour. What happened to a nun? Who was haunted by a poltergeist? Why do some crypts remain closed? In the stronghold of parapsychology (Professor Bender once founded his world-famous institute here), spooks and wonders are omnipresent. Dare to follow the light! Nothing is as it seems at first glance.

The exhibition BODY WORLDS in Berlin is dedicated to the theme "Facets of Life".

Dr. Gunther von Hagens opens up the human body in his Body Worlds exhibitions, making the fragile, worthy structures of life visible to medical laymen. Together with curator Dr. Angelina Whalley, he shows in the exhibition in Berlin-Mitte the facets of life - between happiness and unhappiness, pressure and equilibrium, chance and fate, obsession with the body and forgetfulness of the body, as well as excess and modesty.

The museum opened its doors in Berlin in 2015. It is located at Alexanderplatz directly in front of the Berlin TV Tower. Since then, visitors have had the opportunity to marvel at a variety of unique plastinates. These provide a deep insight into the highly complex interior of the human body. Interested individuals receive detailed knowledge about organ functions and common diseases, all easily understandable. The lifelike poses establish an immediate connection to the viewers.

What connects us, what keeps us upright and in motion, what makes us laugh and love? At BODY WORLDS, you will find answers to these and many other questions. Prepare yourself for a deeply touching and inspiring encounter with life. Do not miss a visit and experience the fascination of plastination.

The first BODY WORLDS museum presents unique plastinates that show the function of individual organs as well as common diseases. It gives insights into the highly complex and structures of the human body and shows what connects us, keeps us upright and in motion, and what makes us laugh and love.

Moreover, the Museum opens the visitors' eyes to various facets that determine our existence: Gluttony & Restraint | Excess & Moderation | Chance & Fate | Pressure & Balance | Happiness & Unhappiness

Doors open: 7:30 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

A 2-hour intensive boat tour through the Port of Hamburg. In contrast to the one-hour tour, we show our guests the true size of the Port of Hamburg. You will be amazed!

Due to the maneuverability of the small boats, you get a really good overview of the structure and performance of the commercial metropolis of Hamburg. Constantly new types of ships are being developed, whose specific purpose a "landlubber" without the detailed explanations of the "He lücht" on board would not even recognize.

Industrial centers are growing rapidly in the port expansion area, harbor basins and quay facilities are newly constructed or altered. Apartments, or new urban areas, are constantly growing along the Elbe River.

The skipper of a boat must constantly update himself on the handling statistics, construction projects, port expansion, and the modernization of shipyards and types of ships, and pass on his knowledge to his passengers.

We believe that this special harbor tour with the small boats should not be missing from any Hamburg program.

(The exact route is always determined by the day's events, and only in case of favorable water levels can the historical Speicherstadt be visited as well).

Please note that our ships are not accessible for people with reduced mobility.
