Magical Christmas Time with the Little Witch
On December 26, 2026, the Schauspielhaus Bochum invites families to an imaginative theater experience. The little witch takes children from six years old on a magical journey full of courage, curiosity, children's laughter, and surprising twists.
A little witch with a big mind of her own
The little witch is 127 years old and therefore too young for the big witches to dance on the Blocksberg. Together with her wise raven Abraxas, she learns spells, tests rules, and seeks her own way. This creates turbulent situations that invite young audiences to marvel, empathize, and reflect.
Imagination, movement, and an important question
The production based on the children's book classic by Otfried Preußler tells in a child-friendly way what it means to be a good witch. The story conveys age-appropriate values such as independence, a sense of responsibility, courage, and the joy of finding one's own voice. Thus, the family piece connects entertainment with a valuable learning experience for children's development.
Theater experience for children from six years old
Director Paulina Neukampf brings the well-known story as a family piece for the Christmas season and beyond to the big stage. An imaginative set design, music, and a playful ensemble create a vibrant theater world. The performance lasts about 70 minutes according to the published information and offers families shared time with excitement, humor, and educational fun.
Conclusion: Dive into a magical world together
The Little Witch at the Schauspielhaus Bochum promises a heartwarming family experience with enchanting images, child-friendly impulses, and plenty of room for wonder. Those looking for a special shared time between the holidays will discover a story about courage, friendship, and independent thinking.
