The Calendar Girl - Psychological Thriller Based on Sebastian Fitzek

What if death is the only chance to survive?

Eleven years ago, Alma was given up for adoption as a baby under mysterious circumstances. Her strictly sealed adoption file carries the note: "The identity of the parents must never, under any circumstances, come to light! The mother's life is in danger!!!" Now Alma is critically ill and urgently needs a bone marrow donor.

To save her adopted daughter's life, Olivia Rauch launches a desperate search for the biological parents. The psychologist, who specialises in violent crime, stumbles upon the legend of the "calendar girl": a young woman who once retreated to a remote cottage in the Frankenwald during the Christmas season - and was there hunted by a psychopath who forced her to open an advent calendar of horrors. Olivia realises she must travel to that traumatised town, enter that cottage, and find the psychopath if she is to save her daughter.

Sebastian Fitzek has long been the leading name in German-language psychological thrillers. Dark and relentlessly nerve-shredding, this multi-layered story delivers suspense in full - and comes to the stage as a world premiere performed by the ensemble of Westfalisches Landestheater.
