The Grumpy Pants in Hof – gentle wonder, big heart, true stage experience
A warm-hearted afternoon event: The Young Theater Hof brings 'The Grumpy Pants', a poetic story based on the children's book by Kirsten Fuchs, to the studio stage. From the age of three, children and adults experience a theater performance that lovingly embraces friendship, attention, and the little quirks of everyday life.
Light, moss forest, soft giggles – the theater atmosphere in the studio
As soon as you enter, you can feel the concentrated theater atmosphere of the studio: 99 seats, short distances, close to the action. A mood-enhancing light carpet opens the cave of the Grumpy Pants, delicate sounds echo the moss forest. This proximity intensifies every audience reaction – from suppressed giggles to enthusiastic murmurs.
Dramaturgy with sensitivity – child-friendly, clever, clear
The staging and design by Jasmin Sarah Zamani focus on clear images, precise props, and a set design that ignites imagination with a few strokes. The dramaturgy by Zuzana Masaryk runs through 45 condensed minutes without pause, rhythmically structured in short scenes that continuously hold attention and curiosity.
Acting art to touch – characters that grow on your heart
With playful precision, Anna Bittner embodies the grumpy Grumpy Pants, while Etienne Moussou shifts between the fairy, little Nakinchen, Heichörnchen, and Kucks, blending comedy with tenderness. The physical work creates clear outlines, and the voice shapes moods – from booming to whisper-soft.
Experience for everyone – as a Relaxed Performance
All performances run as Relaxed Performances: inviting, barrier-free, tolerant of movements and noise expressions. This creates a safe space for families, daycare centers, and first-time visitors, where the joy of theater can grow.
Theater history in the background – from book to stage
The original work by Kirsten Fuchs, an award-winning author and master of fine humor, tells about diversity, attention, and friendship. On stage, these themes become sensory scenes: collagelike images find their correspondence in costume-like color fields, light changes, and lovingly handled props.
