Intro

The funny and exciting dialect fairy tale of the Brothers Grimm.

In the land of the forgetful King Kronenzack there are three terrible plagues of land: The stupid giants Knorxel and Knurxel beat everything that gets in their way short and small. And what the two giants leave behind is pierced by the unicorn or stomped into the ground by the furious wild sow. In order to free his country from these plagues, the king offers his pretty daughter Princess Goldhair as a wife to the hero who can defeat the three monsters.

When the cunning master tailor Fädeli hears of this reward, he boldly goes into battle against the three plagues of the land. He presents himself at the royal court as a great hero and boasts that he has killed seven at one stroke. However, the tailor, who is convinced of his own worth, is as generous in concealing the fact that they are flies who wanted to steal his morning honeyed bread as he is in concealing his origins.

Accompanied by the anxious chamberlain Hasenfuss, who is also very interested in the princess, and the two court maids Trineli and Stineli, Master Fädeli plunges into the great adventure. He finds the three plagues in the deep forest and fights them with a lot of cunning, courage and luck. But until the wonderful fairy tale story arrives at its predetermined Grimm happy ending, the protagonists on the Fauteuil fairy tale stage go through a multitude of tricky, funny and exciting scenes. Shining children's eyes and a joyful cheer along of the little theatergoers are guaranteed.

Ensemble: Balz Aliesch/Philipp Borghesi, Mirjam Buess/Cyliane Howald, Smadar Goldberger, Dieter Probst, Willi Schraner, Benjamin Widmer, Myriam Wittlin and Reto Ziegler.

Director: Kamil Krejci
