Familie Flöz - Wunder

In the organizer's words:

The legendary mask theater company FAMILIE FLÖZ is coming to the Reeperbahn for the first time. In collaboration with the St. Pauli Theater, an evening is created that deals with the myth and wonders of St. Pauli.
St. Pauli, a place shrouded in legend, where dreams come true and burst. A place where sailors meet queer culture. A place of fools and dreamers, of realists and crooks, of marginal figures and those who sit in the middle. Inspired by Cesare Zavattini's story "The Miracle of Bamba", the model for Vittorio de Sica's legendary film "The Miracle of Milan", a world of typical Flöz characters will emerge, a world in which different rules apply than in the city of shipowners and merchants.
The feeling of community, of solidarity, which cannot be destroyed even by the individual search for happiness, has a home here. But this attracts envious people. Because like every idyll, this one is also endangered by people for whom the very existence of this place is a threat. Utopias and diversity are not everyone's cup of tea. After all, idylls don't make a profit.

On stage: five players, two musicians and almost 30 characters. It all begins in the dark, on a wasteland just outside the city gates. Marginal figures have made a simple life for themselves here. Totò is born into this world and Totò brings the light. Once there, everyone wants it - light for sunbathing, light for their flowers, light to turn on, light to turn off again - light for their dreams.
Light becomes the image of individual happiness, the source of longings and desires. Arguments break out. It becomes a twilight, a warning light, a red light and a spotlight. The wasteland becomes colorful, an attraction and a stage. And suddenly some people sense a business opportunity.

WUNDER is a fairy tale inspired by the strange place of St. Pauli. A fairy tale without words for adults, with a poetic mixture of drama, comedy and music.
And on this evening, too, you will experience the wonder of Flöz's cosmos, in which seemingly rigid masks become living figures. In its wordless stories, the company finds the great in the small in the tragicomic failure of its lovingly drawn characters.
