The Robber Hotzenplotz - Burgfestspiele Stettenfels

THE ROBBER HOTZENPLOTZ

Based on the book by Otfried Preußler. A musical chase after a rogue, adapted by Martin Lingnau and Heiko Wohlgemut.

"A robber's life is a merry one..." rings out across the castle moat. The Robber Hotzenplotz is causing havoc on the open-air stage at Burg Stettenfels - and steals Grandmother's brand-new coffee grinder while he's at it. Kasperl and Seppel rush to help and give chase, but Hotzenplotz is no fool: he captures them both. Kasperl he sells to the great sorcerer Petrosilius Zwackelmann, where the poor boy must peel potatoes day after day - until he discovers a mysterious toad in the castle cellar.

Could it be the enchanted fairy Amaryllis? And will Kasperl and Seppel ever get Grandmother's coffee grinder back?

A lively open-air production with plenty of music and fun for all ages. The popular Stettenfels children's ensemble is also part of the cast. Directed by Ursula Simon.
