Christine Zeides & Valentin Gorski: Der Sandmann // Fritz-Wortelmann-Preis 2025

In the organizer's words:

PUPPET THEATER AFTER E.T.A. HOFFMANN

"If you want to live, you have to call your story by its name, you have to call it by its first sentence."

Nathanael. A man lives a carefree and careless life. Then a knock comes: the entrance of the past, a supposedly forgotten past. Strange visitors frighten him and tell him an old wives' tale. It begins: the search for one's own history, the struggle for sanity.

Duration: 50 minutes | Age: from 16 years

An event as part of the 49th competition for the Fritz Wortelmann Prize of the City of Bochum for puppet theater, organized by Fidena.

^{The Fritz Wortelmann Prize is sponsored by the City of Bochum, the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media, the Ministry of Culture and Science of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia and the Sparkasse Bochum Foundation for the Promotion of Culture and Science.}
