When Tales Start to Sound: Audio Play Garage in Erlangen
On October 25, 2026, the theater in the garage transforms into a special listening space for families: In the Audio Play Garage, Schauspiel Erlangen invites children from five years old and all fairy tale lovers to experience three stories by the Brothers Grimm together. Instead of listening alone at home, the audio play becomes a communal stage experience with voices, music, sounds, and an exciting theater atmosphere.
An Afternoon Full of Imagination
The dramaturgy leads through three fairy-tale worlds: The Bremen Town Musicians tell of four unequal companions who find their own way through solidarity. In Rumpelstiltskin, a mysterious game unfolds around gold, promises, and the price of one's own words. Finally, the clever Gretel relies on wit, courage, and a good portion of cunning.
Theatrical Art for the Ears
The format focuses entirely on acoustic staging. Voices, pauses, timbres, and musical interjections replace the classic set design and open a fairy-tale space in the audience's mind. The direction and adaptation are handled by Anja Horst, while Jonas Knecht is responsible for direction, recordings, and editing. The performance is supported by live music with oboe, tuba, violin, piano, and viola.
Three Tales, Three Sound Worlds
In The Bremen Town Musicians, Tobias Graupner, Christian Hettkamp, and Anja Tobler can be heard, accompanied by Rosemary Yiameos on the oboe and Karl Schimke on the tuba. Rumpelstiltskin features Anna Blumer, Birgit Bücker, Fabian Müller, and Frederik Rauscher, along with Daniel Stöckli on violin and piano. The clever Gretel is brought to the acoustic stage by Birgit Bücker, Anja Horst, and Jonas Knecht, accompanied by Ricardo Gaspar on the viola.
Relaxed Listening in the Theater Café
The Audio Play Garage is designed as a shared listening experience in a relaxed atmosphere. The audience takes a seat, listens to the voices, and lets their imagination create images in their minds. The approximately 40-minute performance is suitable for children from five years old and combines literary imagination with the means of modern audio production.
Conclusion: Tales Become a Shared Stage Experience
For those who want to not only read fairy tales but hear them with all their senses, the Audio Play Garage offers a concentrated and imaginative theater afternoon. Three Grimm stories, careful direction, characterful voices, and chamber music sounds make a visit to the theater in the garage a journey into the world of imagination.
