A poetic theater experience about forgetting and rediscovering

On September 18, 2026, ForgetMyFox will present a sensitive PopUp theater piece for young audiences at the Bürgerhaus Bornim. This 45-minute performance combines acting, puppetry, dance, and live music into a stage event that engages both children aged four and their adults. At its center is a fox who forgets that he is a fox – telling a story that playfully, warmly, and cleverly explores aging, memory, and imagination.

When memory becomes the stage

The piece derives its power from proximity: an actress, a white tent, much movement, and a theatrical atmosphere that leads directly to shared experiences. Emerging from long-term research on Dementia & Aesthetics is a sensitive research theater that does not preach but opens up. The approach to forgetting here is not grim but rich in imagery, multifaceted, and surprisingly light. Children are allowed to fantasize, discover, laugh, and lose themselves in a world of forests, meadows, and the deep pond of forgetting.

A production with heart, rhythm, and resonance

Jana Kühn takes on performance and music, complemented by the staging by Luzia Schelling, the composition by Matthias Peter and Kat Papachristou, and the drawings by Thomas Reinhold. This artistic constellation allows the dramaturgy to breathe: not as a loud lesson but as a poetic theatrical experience with a clear handwriting. Especially for young audiences, a space is created where acting and live music inspire each other, and audience reactions are particularly direct based on experience. The piece emerged from artistic research and was supported, among others, by the Performing Arts Fund and a Flausen+ scholarship.

A story with literary depth

The source leads back to Martin Baltscheit, an award-winning author and illustrator whose picture book The Story of the Fox Who Lost His Mind has been among the defining works in the children's and youth sector for years. The production takes the basic idea freely and translates it into its own, physical stage language. This creates a theater evening that combines literary substance and sensual immediacy – exactly the mix that takes young audiences seriously while enchanting them.

A venue with a neighborly atmosphere

The Bürgerhaus Bornim on Potsdamer Straße 90 is a building with both history and present. Over decades, the building has been developed as a place for togetherness and now offers a barrier-free ground floor. This creates a suitable setting for families, daycare groups, and theater enthusiasts for a mobile PopUp format that requires closeness, attention, and flexibility.

Conclusion: A quiet piece with a great impact

ForgetMyFox promises no loud spectacle but a clever, touching, and visually powerful encounter with a topic that children intuitively understand: What happens when memories fade, and what still remains alive? Those looking for poetic children's theater with a sense for body, sound, and imagination will experience a stage event here that resonates long after. Absolutely to be discovered live.
