The award-winning cabaret artist Christine Eixenberger is known to television audiences as Marie Reiter, protagonist of the ZDF series Marie fängt Feuer. In her program Einbildungsfreiheit (Freedom of Imagination ), she tells witty tales of burghers and damsels, of the power of markets and her search for that one, mystical, most Bavarian of all places: the ominous "Dahoam". And all this for a good cause: the proceeds of the cabaret evening will go to Aktion Sonnenschein, which has been working for inclusion in practice for over 50 years.
It all starts with a biblical water damage: Driven out of her own four walls by fabled mushroom colonies and not-so-nimble handymen, Christine Eixenberger sets off on an odyssey through the jungles of large and small towns. The cabaret artist spreads out a panopticon that could not be more romantic: In their involuntary apartment hunt, they ensnare real estate agents and homeowners, who all act like feudal lords of a bygone era. "I'll be so free then...!" thinks Christine Eixenberger and meets the would-be monarchs of the modern age fearlessly, with a powerful voice and eloquence, steeled by countless handicraft lessons and elementary school class trips.
The pediatrician Prof. Dr. Hellbrügge not only revolutionized pediatrics and the German health care system. In order to effectively help his young patients beyond therapy, he founded the world's first school more than 50 years ago in which children with and without special needs were taught together according to Maria Montessori's principles. Decades before the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities came into force. "The Aktion Sonnenschein institutions have long since become national and international trailblazers and role models for inclusion in action," said Munich Mayor Dieter Reiter.
