Details

Based on the gothic stories and illustrations of Struwwelpeter penned in 1844 by a German doctor, Heinrich Hoffman. A junk opera. Shockheaded Peter and his unruly band of wicked youths have horrified and fascinated generations of young people since appearing as Struwwelpeter in 1884. In a pop-up, musical-box modern staging, weird and wonderful tales come to life in an errie and spine-tingling variety show of illusions, puppetry and music.
