Eule findet den Beat – Das Kinder-Theaterkonzert

In the organizer's words:

She is blue and yellow, loves music and has now fully arrived in German children's rooms: Eule, probably the coolest mediator of musical adventures, is on a great voyage of discovery. With enormous success! Since the release of the debut radio play by Charlotte Simon, Nina Addin and Christina Anders, the four Eule albums have sold so well that the makers have been awarded two gold records and one platinum record.

THE STORY

Little Owl, a real music layman, lives in a forest on the outskirts of the city. Like many children, she can't even imagine how immensely diverse the world is. When she is woken up one evening by beautiful music, a magical journey begins for her.

Musically still green behind the ears, Eule immerses herself in numerous genre worlds thanks to many revealing encounters. She meets eight animals who, just like their favorite music, couldn't be more different. For example, Owl gets to know the rock mole at a festival campsite or gets a juicy earworm from the pop fly. The punk cat, the reggae parrot and the electro bat also have their very own idea of what an ideal piece of music should sound like. The hip-hop rat spontaneously starts a freestyle rap, the jazz ace raves about old music legends and the opera moth, like all the animals in this story, has its very own beat.

THE PRODUCTION

You can look forward to a dynamic production in which five actors* not only slip into various animal roles, but also take up the instruments as such. And who would want to remain seated when the hip-hop rat is belting out a big freestyle or the punk cat is jumping across the stage in pogo style? Music moves. The body becomes an instrument for expressing what it feels. This should not only be evident in the performances of the actors, but also for the young audience members, who are always given the opportunity to actively participate - be it dancing, singing or screaming. In favor of a performance that explores the boundaries between theater, music and party, both the stage and the auditorium become a place of action. "We want the children to really groove along and take the beat home with them as a souvenir." The duo is celebrating its first theater production with "Eule findet den Beat".
