In the shadow of great wings
Illusion and Magic Theatre
Premiere 2016. Theater Anu präsentiert sein Bühnenprogramm TRAUMZEIT in Berlin. Ein Wintermärchen zum Träumen:
The cinema owner Georg Licht had an Eskimo woman fall out of the film years ago. Since then they have been living together in the old movie theatre. As if that weren't curious enough, strange things suddenly start happening: Feathers lie everywhere in the cinema hall, brooms dance, bells ring by themselves. Georg Licht tries to get to the bottom of these ghostly happenings and makes an astonishing discovery - an angel.
Mr. Licht is sure the winged messenger has come to save the run-down cinema from going out of business. He wants to present him to the paying public in an angel show. But it soon becomes clear that the angel is here for a completely different reason...
IM SCHATTEN GROSSER FLÜGEL (In the Shadow of Big Wings) tells the story of an encounter between the earthly and the supernatural with a great sense of poetry and in a humorous way.
Experience a unique mix of magic, shadow play, dance, film and video projection.
Poetic, amazing and sensual at the same time - a magic theatre for young and old.
The piece 'In the Shadow of Great Wings' combines classical magic, shadow play, dance, film and video projection to create a journey between worlds.
Theater Anu gathers all kinds of oddball characters on stage. Thus the old Saalbau cinema becomes a cabinet of curiosities, the cinema-goers become onlookers at an encounter between the earthly and the supernatural... Coherently told in an atmospherically dense story!Starkenburger Echo
DREAM TIME- IN THE SHADOW OF BIG WINGS Trailer
Bumbalo - the islands of the lucky children
Premiere 2011.
A young queen and her castellan have found quarters for the night in the theatre. They are in search of a new home, because their archipelago Bumbalo - the islands of the lucky children - has sunk into the sea. The only things they have left are a few belongings and a suitcase full of sand...
With poetic images, stories and crazy magic, Bille and Stefan Behr tell a modern island fairy tale: Magic sand, unusual shadows, magical sunsets and the art of distinguishing the true from the false make the evening a special theatre experience.
An audience is left behind between dream and admiration: as if lost in a dream when listening to the fairytale stories about kings, sailors with paper ships and encounters with their own, admiring when following the magic. Playing on two stages and involving the audience, the stories from the 'Dreamtime' become a cosmos of magic, acting, shadow play and stories. All this is so absorbing that the audience surrenders completely to Bumbalo's magic.
