In performative video works, some of them community productions with Tiago Mata Machado, the Brazilian artist Cinthia Marcelle isolates everyday, routine movements and work processes from their functional and production-oriented context. The mostly collaboratively participatory situations are transformed into poetic, metaphorical images that put established routines of social interaction and a performance-oriented logic of modern societies into question.

The exhibition Bodies in Motion – Form in the Making contextualizes the performative, mostly based on simple action instructions performance-based video works of Cinthia Marcelle for the first time with icons of the American post-minimalist dance and performance practice of the 1960s/70s such as Yvonne Rainer, Bruce Nauman, Suzanne Harris, and the performative-participatory approach of the minimalist sculptures of the German artist Charlotte Posenenske.

The exhibition is curated by Anna Roberta Goetz.

If these aren't good news. Jakub is born with a lucky skin that ensures everything in his life turns out for the better. Additionally, he is foretold that at the age of 14 he shall marry the king's daughter. Everything would be ready for a happy ending, if it weren't for the evil, evil king. He has all the children packed into boxes and thrown into the river. Jakub is rescued and grows up with the miller. And when, through a coincidence and the help of dancing weasels, he marries the king's daughter at 14, the king is beside himself. He sends Jakub on a dangerous journey. He is to bring him the 3 golden hairs of the devil. Jakub's journey becomes a crazy adventure. Through deep murmuring forests. Through a desert with a shy cactus without thorns. Over a sad river straight into hell. Will Jakub manage to trick the devil out of these hairs? Can Jakub help a well, a withered tree, and a ferryman? And is the devil's grandmother a hellish grandma or not? And what does the princess say about that? And since when can cacti sing operas? All these questions will be answered in the new stunning Christmas fairy tale at the Clack Theater. “The Devil with the Three Golden Hairs,” the new offering from the Clack Theater. Magical, exciting, and above all funny. For children as well as for adults. And since the Clack fairy tales are chronically sold out, you should buy tickets faster than the devil.

Find out for yourself!).

A humorous and tidy comedy & cabaret program through the less-is-more jungle.

Life could be so simple. Clear, happy, and relaxed! At least that is the promise of minimalism and decluttering guides. But how do I, as a creative chaos, get to the promised land of order? These difficult questions have also crossed Olaf Bossi's mind a few years ago. Do I really need this? Or can this go? Olaf decided to declutter - and that’s where it all begins. Humorous, informative, and, how could it be otherwise: a bit chaotic! In his tidy program, Bossi winks at the audience and reveals how we can escape the spiral of Always More, perfect for imitation.
,,He makes the audience reflect on their own lives and laugh uncontrollably." (Kraichgau Stimme)

Advance ticket sales start on June 1st.

Writing is a miraculous act, accompanied by many questions. Where does a story begin? Where do ideas come from, and what might they turn into? What arises in the mind and what on paper? Writing is always also about perseverance, tolerating, continuing – with the characters, the developing stories. How do I know: I have told everything? And what comes after that? We will dedicate ourselves to these questions in a three-step approach. In addition to developing a story that we will discuss in excerpts, it involves examining one's own impulses, techniques for developing content, and strategies to align one's writing and self-doubt.

LENA GORELIK is a multi-award-winning author of essays, youth books, and novels ("Who We Are", 2022). Her new novel "All My Mothers" will be published in spring 2026.

The time is running. And we all run with it. Sometimes ahead, mostly behind. And somewhere in the middle is Katie Freudenschuss.

What will remain of us when we are no longer here? Will the Z-word schnitzel make it onto the next menu, will one become immortal through a hashtag, and has anyone already found our Golden Voyager Records in outer space? Who takes care of the inner child when one doesn't have time for themselves? And: after a break in the 2nd program, it's finally a reunion with Tamara!

A woman, a piano, and a keen observation. Those who have experienced the award-winning entertainer live on stage know that her evenings are always a varied mix of cabaret, original songs, stand-up, and brilliant improvisations. Courageous, emotional, and with an open visor.

With great musical diversity, she knows how to capture the big and small encounters and events in words or compositions. Touching and funny, melancholic and naughty. Katie's special strength lies in creating songs from the moment. The interactions with the audience make every evening unique. Just like time.

So hurry up and come to this show! Nothing remains as it is. You can count on that.

Encounter of two worlds: In the musical highlight "Tarzan," the audience experiences a breathtaking jungle adventure together with the title hero. Spectacular original compositions, plenty of excitement, and a touch of romance provide an entertaining live experience for the whole family!

Unforgettable musical show
The renowned theater Liberi, known for its modern family musicals, stages the hundred-year-old story by Edgar Rice Burrough in a contemporary version. Imaginative costumes, a playful, colorful set, and atmospheric lighting effects create the jungle world where Tarzan resides. Musically, the audience is taken on a diverse journey through different genres that impress with impressive arrangements and great emotions. A highly trained ensemble ensures that characters, music, and scenery on stage merge into a unique whole.

Exciting adventures in the jungle
A young family suffers shipwreck and - barely stranded on the African coast - is attacked by wild animals. Left behind is a little boy who is taken in and raised by the she-ape Kala, orphaned like her own child. But even though Tarzan finds a home among the apes and a good friend in the ape girl Tea, the leader Kerchak makes him feel that he does not truly belong with them even after years. The feeling of still having to find his place in the world gets stronger when Tarzan encounters humans for the first time. Professor Porter, his curious daughter Jane, and the shady Olivia Clayton are on an expedition to explore the jungle. Over time, Tarzan and Jane grow closer, but then events take a dramatic turn, and Tarzan and his ape family face great danger…

Age: from 4 years old
Duration: 2 hours including a 20-minute intermission

YOU TOO!
Best of Philipp Schaller

The new Artistic Director of the Herkuleskeule, Philipp Schaller, has been one of the most frequently performed cabaret authors in the country for many years. Not only does the Keule, but also the Berliner Distel, Gisela Oechelhaeuser, Erik Lehmann, Michael Frowin, Ellen Schaller, and many other cabaret artists perform his bitingly satirical texts every evening. For the past seven years, Schaller himself has been on stage, steadily building a growing fan base.

He prefers to ask questions rather than annoy the audience with moralizing. He does not rant against those at the top, but directs his humor towards himself: ruthlessly and hilariously!

In his first Best-Of program, Philipp Schaller delivers his most important texts, timeless and very current, performed and read, from silly to profoundly dark, sly to macabre – not always funny, but consistently comical. Philipp Schaller does not play characters, he finds his material within himself and thus becomes a mirror of our absurd desires, vanities, cowardice, and double standards. He intentionally places himself between all chairs, as for him, it is the most productive place to still find compromises in a divided society. Irony is his means of transportation between the ideological trenches of the right and left, climate activists and climate deniers, gender-neutral language proponents and old white men. Only when it comes to the topic of peace or war, there is no room between the chairs - a theme that has accompanied Schaller's programs for many years.

The premiere of this program has been postponed multiple times due to the Corona pandemic and the associated closure of theaters. Therefore, Philipp Schaller has completely revised his program and is excited to finally be able to present it.

Over 57 million people worldwide have already visited the exhibition. Starting January 30, 2026, plastinator Dr. Gunther von Hagens and curator Dr. Angelina Whalley will showcase their current exhibition about the human body in the cycle of creation and decay in Chemnitz: KÖRPERWELTEN & Der Zyklus des Lebens.
A variety of unique preparations, including many whole-body plastinates, guide us through the human body and clearly explain the individual organ functions as well as common diseases. The focus is on the human body and its changes over time, from conception to old age. KÖRPERWELTEN vividly demonstrates what each of us can do to maintain our health and high quality of life for as long as possible. There are only a few events that can change our perspective on ourselves so profoundly!
All specimens displayed in the exhibition are real. They come from individuals who, during their lifetime, stipulated that their bodies should be made available for the training of doctors and interested laypeople after their death.

Last admission: 5:00 PM
