The Theater Club of Johannes Kepler Primary School Mannheim: A Klumba for the Lion

The lion is throwing his birthday party again. The animals are thrilled - everyone knows the lion throws the best parties. Remember last year's water fight? Or how they all danced and sang late into the night? So the animals arrive full of excitement, certain it will be another great celebration... until a gift from a human suddenly and unexpectedly appears for the lion: a Klumba. This present doesn't just derail the party - it turns the lion's entire everyday life upside down.

The play uses a playful, funny story to explore the consequences of excessive smartphone use.
