Winter dreams begin: variety show highlights in the Kulturhaus Pforzheim!
As the pre-Christmas season approaches, anticipation increases in Pforzheim for the variety theater “Winterträume”, which will be held in the Osterfeld cultural center. Advance sales have begun and the first tickets are already in high demand. The premiere is scheduled for December 18th, while the final performance will take place on January 6th. Directed by Katinka Rabenseifner, a total of 25 shows are offered that promise a real fireworks display of entertainment.
This breathtaking production features four individual actors and three artist duos who present a colorful mixture of magic, juggling and captivating acrobatics. One of the highlights is Fenja Barteldres, who will cause a stir with her Cyr-Rad number “Cyrrealism”. The British magician Miles Pitwell, who returns as presenter, not only impresses with his magical skills, but also brings a special touch as an unusual emcee.
A diverse program of artists
The program shows exceptional diversity that is appealing to every age group. The duo Gaby and Henry, known from “Full House,” put their own twist on comedy juggling by incorporating everyday marital adventures into the performance.
Another highlight is Katharina and Johann with their performance on the level straps, which shine with dynamics and elegance. The Duo Kraoul captivates the audience with partner acrobatics and a fascinating jump rope number. Thomas Staath, on the other hand, shows masterful tricks on the Chinese mast and also impresses with daring tire juggling.
The handstand acrobatics of Junru Wang, a former Cirque de Soleil artist, will also be a real treat for the audience. In addition to bringing her skills to the stage, Wang also holds a Guinness World Record for hand balance and draws parallels between her performances and the fluidity of water.
Discounted tickets and culinary delights
Tickets are available via the Kulturhaus website, by telephone and at various ticket offices. There are discounted tickets for families so that even the little ones can enjoy these fascinating performances. And if you're planning a special evening after the performance, you can look forward to a New Year's Eve menu at Ristorante Comedia, which is also part of the offer.
Overall, the event aims to continue the successes of previous years and offer visitors an unparalleled experience. As the Kulturhaus Osterfeld describes, the art form of vaudeville has its origins in the 19th century and combines a variety of artistic forms of expression. Today it remains a popular destination for family outings and group events that value close proximity to the performers.
The enthusiasm for variety shows is not only evident in Pforzheim. The modern GOP Varieté Theater in Germany also rely on the same mix of live performances, music and culinary delicacies. With an unforgettable experience for young and old, the Pforzheim Christmas season has a special star.
Don't miss the opportunity to witness one of the most dazzling events of the season - winter dreams await!
