Abracadabra - A story in miracles

Premiere 2025

For many years, the magic theatre "Traumzeit" was a regular event between the years in Heppenheim. Now the format is returning: Stefan Behr from the ANU theatre will once again enchant his audience in the vaulted cellar of the Amtshof.

He takes the audience into the world of the inexplicable! Amazing feats that almost make you believe in miracles. Only the mind can bring the impossible back into the world of the explainable. But what if the boundaries are not so secure?
Behr conjures up and recounts the fascinating history of the magical arts and their relationship to miracles. He tells of tricky shamans who healed people and of Napoleon, who sent the famous magician Robert-Houdin to Algeria to persuade the rebels to give in with spectacular magic tricks.
And in the end, the boundaries between illusion and reality, between art and magic become blurred - leaving behind an evening full of amazement and unforgettable moments.

Magic theatre for adults - atmospheric, amazing, unforgettable.
The audience surrenders completely to the magic.
