Schatten über dem Nichts

In the organizer's words:

Horror stories and fairy tales of black romance

with Katharina Thalbach and The beauty of Gemina Acoustic (TRIO)

Vampires and ghosts, evil stepmothers and demons - Gothic romance gave the grotesque and the horrific a sublime beauty and delved into the dark side of the human soul. It is world literature! From Bram Stoker and Edgar Allen Poe to Heinrich Heine, the exceptional actress and the musical aesthetes of melancholy bring haunted figures and stories of Black Romanticism to life.

The unique German actress and director Katharina Thalbach, who is known to a wide audience, is one of the very special stage artists. With her immense joy of acting full of humor, her passionate performance and linguistic brilliance, fairy tales and stories come true! The charismatic singer and songwriter Michael Sele has been celebrating international success with his band The Beauty of Gemina for years. He moves skillfully between worlds with his songs and compositions: Dense, hypnotic sounds celebrate a music full of dark elegance, yet creating a warm and touching familiarity. Together they take the audience on a journey into the eerie and spooky world of the fantastic.
