Langenargener Festspiele | Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn - Evening Performance

Based on Mark Twain's famous novel, the adventurous world of the Mississippi comes to life against the backdrop of Lake Constance.

Tom Sawyer loves freedom, mischief and adventure. Together with his best friend Huckleberry Finn, he roams a world full of dares, pranks and big dreams. But one day the two boys stumble into a situation that changes everything: they secretly witness a quarrel that ends in a tragic accident. Too frightened to speak up, they watch helplessly as their friend Muff Potter is wrongly arrested.

What starts as a game becomes a test of friendship, loyalty and courage. Tom and Huck learn to stand up for each other and take responsibility - and along the way Tom discovers, with Becky Thatcher, what it means to fall in love for the first time, without losing his curiosity, charm or spirit of adventure.

Drawing on Mark Twain's timeless novel, the Langenargener Festspiele stage a lively, imaginative production for the whole family on the shores of Lake Constance. Gripping, funny and full of suspense - a theatre evening that keeps both children and adults on the edge of their seats.

Recommended age 6 and up. Running time approx. 120 min. including one interval.

The summer theatre runs at the open-air shell stage in the Schlosspark Langenargen from 27 June to 9 August 2026.

The Festspiele perform against the stunning backdrop of Schloss Montfort and Lake Constance. If the weather turns, performances move to the charming Munzhof - a historic tithe barn whose atmosphere has a magic all its own. Open air or under a historic roof, an evening at the Festspiele is one of the summer's highlights.
