Corinna Freudig // Wein, WEIB und Weihnachten

In the organizer's words:

What really happened in Bethlehem back then
Christmas without Mary? Unimaginable! Christmas without Joseph?

Well ... Corinna Freudig invites you to an evening for everyone; and for Catholics. Because this "wwww" (women world wide web) is stretched over the realm of women in general and that of Mary in particular - that's right, Mary, who came into other circumstances under highly mysterious circumstances, who had no luck either with the stepfather of her son (old and poor) or with the child's father (never there) and whose rebellious son came to an early end. In short: Maria was too often just a "Marianette" in a life determined by others and an infallible male society.

Corinna Freudig plays and speaks alone on stage. Lyrically, however, she also lets men who write poetry have their say and weaves in the odd spoken sip of WEINachten. Oh yes - she also sings. But fortunately only a little. An entertaining and amusing evening that makes it clear: from a woman's point of view, many things were not at all better in the past.

Rating: pleasing, not godly.
