A musical-scenic reading based on Joanne Harris's novel of the same name - sagas.ensemble GmbH Stuttgart. Featuring Ann-Kathrin Kramer, Harald Krassnitzer and Les Manouches du Tannes. Text adaptation, production and direction: Martin Mühleis.
The 2026/2027 theatre season in the Grand Hall opens with Ann-Kathrin Kramer and Harald Krassnitzer bringing a fairy tale for adults to the stage. In a small village in southern France, Vianne Rocher, a widow and single mother, opens a pâtisserie at the church square - a small temple to the finest chocolates. For the village priest Curé Francis Reynaud, this form of temptation is absolutely unacceptable: he strictly forbids his congregation any contact with the young woman and becomes her adversary.
In an amusing way, two life philosophies collide that could hardly be more different. Together with four musicians, Kramer and Krassnitzer bring the story to life.
