Based on the novella by Theodor Storm | In High & Low German
for ages 14 and up
Some nights, a mysterious rider on a white horse appears on the coast of North Friesland. He recalls the story of Hauke Haien, who loved the sea but also recognized its immense power and developed a new model for building dykes. The village community mistrusted the young outsider, even mocked him - until the next storm surge came.
Theodor Storm's timeless novella tells of renewal and fear of loss, progress and overconfidence - and of the unpredictable, incorruptible force of the sea.
Ingo Putz and Yvonne Marcour were awarded the Theaterpreis Hamburg - Rolf Mares in the category outstanding stage / direction in 2024.
