Overview

Intro

Summer Vacation Theater 2026 at Lange Erlen, Basel: A cheeky and colorful adventure full of fun and imagination about the strongest and wildest girl in the world!

Pippi Longstocking is an extraordinary girl. She lives all by herself in Villa Villekulla, together with her horse and her monkey, Mr. Nilsson.

Pippi is incredibly strong and fearless. She befriends her neighbors, Tommy and Annika, and goes on many funny and crazy adventures with them. The adults, however, are not at all happy that Pippi does whatever she pleases.

Her father is a captain at sea, but Pippi manages just fine on her own.
