A revue full of images, sound and movement

Even the description opens a poetic space: sometimes light and floating, sometimes wild and grand, sometimes tangled or completely alone. Exactly from this the music theater production draws its power. The piece does not think in rigid forms, but in colors, moods, and small transformations that directly address a young audience. Directed by Jörg Behr, the musical direction is shared by Jason Tran and Dan Raţiu, and the evening is designed by Marc Weeger.

Theater atmosphere in the Opernfoyer

The Opernfoyer of the Theater Duisburg is considered a stylish space from the 1950s and offers seating for up to 200 spectators. The venue is particularly suitable for foyer productions and family-friendly formats. For the audience, this means: immediate proximity to the stage, a concentrated acoustic, and that intimate theater atmosphere where every gesture and every sound becomes visible. The house opens according to visitor information one hour before the start; no late admission is allowed in the Opernfoyer.

Travel, service and accessibility

The journey to the Theater Duisburg is well connected: it is about a ten-minute walk from the main train station, and both U79 and lines 901 and 903 stop at the König-Heinrich-Platz station. Parking at Opernplatz is not permitted; nearby are the König-Heinrich-Platz underground car park and the City Palais underground car park. The cloakroom is free of charge. The Opernfoyer itself is only accessible via stairs, and therefore accessibility remains limited; wheelchair spaces and further assistance are explained in the house service of the theater.
