Enchanting moments for the whole family
Musical highlights for young and old at the Karlsruhe Konzerthalle
A magical journey awaits visitors young and old to the Konzerthaus in autumn and winter 2023/24. From fairytale adventures such as Jim Knopf or Aladdin to popular children's songs to sing along to by Simone Sommerland and timeless Disney melodies from The Lion King: the events promise entertainment and magical moments for the whole family.
Jim Knopf and the Engine Driver, the fairy-tale family musical based on the novel by Michael Ende, invites young and old to listen and join in on 25 October 2023 at the Konzerthaus. The musical tells the loving story of Jim Knopf and Lukas the Locomotive Driver, the likeable inhabitants of the island of Lummerland, which is ruled by King Alfons the Quarter-By Twelfth. The special effects do not come from the technical wonder box, but are made by the audience: the audience is invited to join in and be, for example, the rain, the sea, the mirage, the background choir and much more.
With her voice, it is hard to imagine a children's room without her. Simone Sommerland has been delighting fans young and old for over ten years with her songs like "Aramsamsam" and "Die Räder vom Bus". Now, live on stage at the Konzerthaus on 4 November 2023, she will thrill the audience with her most popular songs and invites everyone to sing and dance along.
In the musical Aladdin, the audience will be immersed in a world of adventure and magic on 30 December 2023. The Liberi Theatre, known for its imaginative family musicals, presents the famous story from 1001 Nights in a fast-paced and modern version. Fantastic lighting effects, elegant costumes and impressive music and choreography create the perfect backdrop for the mysterious world of Aladdin, Yasmin and Genie.
Hakuna Matata! Characters like Timon and Pumba, Simba and Nala are more than just fond childhood memories for many, and the music penned by Hans Zimmer and Elton John in particular still makes big hearts beat faster today. With The Lion King in concert, the Disney classic will now also come to Karlsruhe on 15 January 2024 and immerse the audience in an evening full of nostalgia and impressive live orchestral music.
