Two Monsters: A Clever Stage Experience About Conflict and Togetherness
When a blue and a red monster live on opposite sides of a mountain, the world seems clearly divided. However, in the delightful children's production Two Monsters by Gertrud Pigor, a dispute brings the two characters closer together than they initially suspect. On November 1, 2026, the KOM'MA Children's and Youth Theater Duisburg invites families to an imaginative theater experience with music.
Two Colors, Two Perspectives, One Shared Adventure
On the west side of the mountain lives the blue monster, and on the east side, the red one. Through a hole in the mountain, the two can talk to each other, but they have never seen one another. When a fierce argument breaks out, different perspectives, temperaments, and ideas collide. It is precisely in this opposition that young and old viewers see themselves.
Playful Dramaturgy with Musical Rhythm
The production combines acting, music, and a clear, pictorial dramaturgy. Gertrud Pigor's source material tells with wit and precision about prejudice, boundaries, and the surprising closeness between supposed adversaries. The music by Gertrud Pigor gives the stage action a lively rhythm and highlights the conflict with comedic and poetic moments.
Children's Theater with a Clear Focus on Togetherness
Director Renate Frisch, together with Sascha Bauer and Tina El-Fayoumy, creates an accessible stage adventure for children aged five and up. The set designed by Sascha Bauer and the costumes by Marlene Nelissen create a sensorially recognizable world in which the two monsters test their limits. The performance lasts about 50 minutes and is particularly suitable for young theater guests and families.
An Afternoon at the KOM'MA Theater
The KOM'MA Children's and Youth Theater is one of the traditional free children's and youth theaters in Duisburg. The theater atmosphere in Rheinhausen offers direct access to the performing arts: close to the play, close to the characters, and close to the audience's reactions. For those traveling by public transport, the stops Willy-Brandt-Kolleg, Friedrich-Ebert-Straße, and Rheinhausen Rathaus are within a short walking distance.
Conclusion: Dispute Can Open the Path to Each Other
Two Monsters promises a colorful and musical stage experience that entertains children while also encouraging reflection on diversity, togetherness, and reconciliation. If you want to experience vibrant children's theater full of imagination, humor, and a clear dramaturgical idea, the KOM'MA Theater offers a special family afternoon.
