In the organizer's words:

Akte X-Mas, the 5th candle on the Advent wreath, will be performed on 16.12. at 19:30 in the Ruhrfestspielhaus.

Every year, in the run-up to Christmas, people find themselves in this highly complex, emotional situation: at the Christmas markets, boundless exhaustion mixes with an insatiable hunger for experiences, in the shopping malls, unbridled consumer frenzy meets stressed budgets and nerves, ringing bells and LED flashing in an endless loop become a shredder for sentimental childhood memories of quiet nights, glittering snow and expectant contemplation. In short: it's complicated! But there is an Advent event that provides the perfect answer to the pre-Christmas chaos: The X-Mas Files, the Christmas revue you can wrap up after! Created over ten years ago on a whim, it has now become a fixed date between the ensemble and its audience.
