KÖRPERWELTEN – Anatomy of Happiness

The body as a place of happiness
Great love, a carefree life, true friendship... we all strive for happiness. But have you ever wondered how happiness actually arises? Why it is so important for our lives and why we can’t get enough of it? Or why we can’t permanently preserve happiness?

Like every action, perception, or sensation, the feeling of happiness is also a result of certain processes in our body. In the Heidelberg KÖRPERWELTEN Museum, you can discover what exactly lies beneath your skin with real anatomical specimens and which structures are involved in the emergence of the feeling of happiness. In doing so, you will learn a lot of interesting things about your organ functions and about health in general. And you will be surprised at how versatile positive or negative emotions affect the entire body. Because everything we experience, feel, and do or don’t do with our body ultimately has an impact on it sooner or later.

An exhibition that will change your perspective on yourself.

Mackefisch creates something extraordinary. And not just because they play around 20 instruments simultaneously with four arms and legs – from self-built suitcase drums, a tap shoe that plays with rattles, cork plates, and horns, to banjo, guitar, and the keyboard that combines skilled piano playing with crazy synth sounds. Also not because their two-part singing confidently switches between breathtakingly beautiful and incredibly fast. Or because it carries unmatched funny, poetic, and relentless lyrics.
The truly unique aspect of the award-winning mini-band is the feeling you take home after the concert. And it's a damn good one: Mackefisch's KOMPLIZIRKUS does not simply make you forget all your worries. Even serious topics are given their space by Lucie Mackert and Peter Fischer, despite all the good mood and intricate rhythms. No, not space – a ring! And suddenly, heavy thoughts bounce through sparkling hoops to infectious music, juggle with good ideas, and allow themselves to be petted. And you realize: after an evening with Mackefisch, the weight of the world just feels significantly lighter.

Mackefisch are winners of numerous awards (including Kleinkunstpreis St. Ingberter Pfanne, Kleinkunstförderpreis Baden-Württemberg, Kabarettpreis Mindener Stichling, and Funny For Future Songcontest).

Doors open at 6:30 PM

Comedy by Alan Ayckbourn

London. 1960s.
Greg doesn't have much experience with women yet, but he loves his girlfriend Ginny. She is just as young as he is but has quite a past. So far, so modern.

When Greg finally gathers the courage to propose, the surprised Ginny travels to the countryside to definitively break up with her persistent ex-lover Philip. Philip is somewhat older and married. To the suspicious Greg, Ginny says she is going to visit her parents. Greg impulsively follows her, but he arrives first at the beautiful estate "The Willows." Here, he meets his fiancée's lover and his wife Sheila, but naturally assumes they are his future in-laws. When Ginny appears later, not only the lupins bloom in Philip's garden, but so do the misunderstandings.

Already in one of his first plays, Alan Ayckbourn proves himself to be a master of comedic art. The way four people talk past each other and, out of sheer politeness, fail to get to the point is "very British" and disarmingly funny. His characters are definitely people of flesh and blood. Even the seemingly naive Sheila has her little secrets. And the theme of marriage gets, as often with Ayckbourn, a unique perspective.

Doors open 30 minutes before the performance begins.

The Aschaffenburg native Lisa-Marie Fritz aka Schlongonges is, as the artist's name suggests, a single power machine who has lost the thread in her captivating stories more often than your grandma in her entire knitting career. The Aschaffenburg girl with the big mouth will be on a solo tour in Germany starting this autumn. With her program - Theme violation - and her sexy "accent," she makes even the most stoic Frenchman melt and your laughing muscles work overtime. Since a legendary performance at an open mic night, she regularly wins the hearts of her audience with her charming, hilarious style. The still 35-year-old manages to rock the stage for an entire evening off the cuff. She likes to refer to herself as a living "theme violation." Whether that is actually the program with her remains to be seen by those who experience her live on stage. One thing is already certain though: An evening with Schlongonges will be fabulous!

The travelogue is a colorful genre: on one hand, committed to facts, and on the other, strongly overlapping with narratives that range from the Odyssey to the road movie. When embarking on a journey, do we always have these patterns in mind? And what makes a journey, exoticism, distance? Not necessarily. Many adventures begin very close by, as seen in the travel descriptions of Frank Barsch.

One of these journeys becomes a novel when the Heidelberg author and literary scholar relocates Heinrich Heine's famous Harz hike to the present day. Exactly 200 years ago, Heine renewed the travel narrative with a mixture of descriptions, fantasies, nature writing, and social satire. A form that still works well today.

Marcus Imbsweiler discusses the theme of traveling near and far with Frank Barsch, using examples from his travel descriptions.

Dr. Frank Barsch publishes prose, poetry, and radio plays. As a lecturer in creative writing, he is active at the Heidelberg University of Education, among others.

The society is divided, the döner costs €8 and nasty new mosquitoes now sting even stingier. The world is sinking into chaos and even organization queen Marie Kondo no longer tidies up. The only thing that can save us now is a big bucket of ice cream and the romantic fireplace DVD. Lara Ermer still doesn’t make herself too comfortable and settles accounts – in doubt with herself. Armed with a good pinch of charm, she devotes herself to the important questions of life without burning her fingers on them. Why the hell do we get so damn quickly aggressive in societal discussions? If I am definitely right – what do you have then? And who sweats more at the summer picnic: me or the cheese? Behind the program are waterproof researches, the depths of the internet, and a completed psychology degree. Comedy doesn’t get more serious than this. In Easily Flammable, the comedienne enjoys playing with fire: sometimes she delivers entertaining chaos, sometimes a fine crackle that the audience can warm themselves by. So get the marshmallows ready, at Lara Ermer's campfire there is room for everyone – but woe to anyone who pulls out the guitar and starts singing Wonderwall.
