Fairy tales came from the vernacular, and Markus Weber has brought them back there and translated Grimm's fairy tales into the Palatinate dialect. And not only that, he has also located them spatially on the Bergstrasse.
And so the boundaries between stories and history become miraculously blurred:
Snow White and Rose Red are at home up in Nächstenbach, Rumpelstiltskin lives behind a rock door on the old Burgweg, Snow White's "siwwe Zwoggel" live behind the seven Bergencam wayside shrines in Oberflockenbach, the Gaaß and her "siwwe Kinner" are at home in the Bennwälder woods above the Nordstadt and Sleeping Beauty's castle still stands sleepily above Leutershausen.
Enjoy a relaxed evening without the hustle and bustle of the pre-Christmas season with an exquisite menu featuring Grimm's fairy tales, read in the Palatinate dialect by Dr. Markus Weber in the cosy atmosphere of the Rampenlicht restaurant in the Casino.
The press writes:
"The content of the fairy tales is one thing in this extraordinary reading. Weber's personality is the other. He literally stages the stories. He disguises his voice, forms sounds such as "schnurr, schnurr, schnurr" or emphasizes what he is saying with pronounced facial expressions and gestures. Everything comes vividly to life, even though Weber reads sitting at a table. Simply marvelous!" (RNZ 06.10.2022)
