Young Stage: The Little Witch

"The Little Witch" by Otfried Preußler. Open-air theatre for families with children from age 6.

The little witch, whose greatest wish is to fly with the big witches on the Hornisgrinde, lives with her talking raven Abraxas in a small, crooked cottage in the Black Forest. When she tries to sneak in with the other witches on Walpurgis Night without permission, she is discovered and her broomstick is burned as punishment. Much to the annoyance of the wicked weather witch Rumpumpel, she is given a chance to join them at the next Walpurgis Night if she becomes a good witch by then. Together with the raven Abraxas, the little witch does everything she can to memorize the book of witches and perform good deeds. Will her efforts be enough?

In case of rain, the event takes place in the assembly hall of Realschule Oberkirch.
