Solo Sunny

Landesbühnen Sachsen

Sunny seems to have made it: she plays music and earns her living from singing. She used to work on the factory floor; now people want to hear her voice. She is beautiful, some admirers are allowed to stay the night - but without breakfast -, and others she has to keep at arm's length. Harry the taxi driver is desperately in love with her. Her bandmate Norbert considers himself the right man for her and turns aggressive when she rejects him. She finally loses her heart to the philosopher Ralph - and the band falls apart.

But the vivid Sunny cannot bear going back to the factory and keeps fighting for her dream of making music. The stage adaptation is based on the celebrated, award-winning East German film classic by Konrad Wolf and Wolfgang Kohlhaase from 1980, which took its audiences to a Berlin that no longer exists. On stage, familiar stories come back to life - with plenty of music, of course.
