A poetic theater adventure for children aged 4 and up
ForgetMyFox brings a finely observed, sensory stage experience to Potsdam on October 16, 2026. The PopUp theater piece for young audiences combines acting, puppet theater, dance, and live music into a dense theatrical atmosphere that weaves together memories, imagination, and the feeling of forgetting.
When a fox forgets, the game of memory begins
At the center is the quietly yet surprisingly lively question of what happens when a fox grows so old that he sometimes even forgets he is a fox. The production takes children and adults on an adventurous journey through forests and meadows to the deep pond of forgetting. There, images full of wonder, gentleness, and small comedy arise, carried by a clear dramaturgy and immediately engaging acting.
A PopUp theater that seeks closeness instead of distance
The performance works with a white tent as a transformable play space, thereby creating a protected, almost intimate framework. It is precisely this form that adds to the charm of the evening: The audience does not only sit in front of the stage but moves closely alongside the action. This creates that rare audience reaction where concentration, curiosity, and collective participation shape the space. The performance lasts 45 minutes and is aimed at children aged 4 and their adults.
Dramaturgy between lightness and depth
ForgetMyFox appears playful without losing its thematic substance. The piece emerged from long-term research on dementia & aesthetics and thus connects artistic precision with social relevance. Its authority lies precisely in this: It looks at forgetting not as a deficit but as a poetic state full of fractures, surprises, and new perspectives. The production opens a space where storytelling is explicitly welcome.
A special place in Potsdam-West
The performance takes place at Scholle 51, a studio house for culture and creative industries in Potsdam-West. This place stands for an open, urban cultural climate and thus fits ideally with a theater evening that seeks closeness, transformability, and direct communication. The stage experience gains additional atmosphere here: The environment of a lively cultural house amplifies the tension between intimate performance style and concentrated live moment.
Conclusion: An evening for curious families and open senses
ForgetMyFox promises a sensitive, clever, and visually striking theater experience for young audiences. Those who appreciate poetic children's theater with music, movement, and fine puppet work will experience an evening that resonates long after. An event that takes children seriously and touches adults - experience it live in Potsdam.
