An evening of fairy tales full of poetry, snow, and stage magic
When Theater Lakritz presents Mother Holle on December 2, 2026, at 10:00 AM at T-Werk Potsdam, a journey into the poetic world of the Brothers Grimm begins for both young and old viewers. The storytelling theater from the bakery connects character, object, and material theater with an imagery that not only retells the fairy tale but charges it sensually. The production is considered a lively, entertaining work of the ensemble, which has existed since 2002 and comes from the free puppet and storytelling theater scene.

Between Goldie and Daisy: a classic with fine wit
At the center is the familiar story of two sisters who seemingly experience the same thing yet return to their world in completely different ways. Theater Lakritz relies on the power of playfulness: dough, kitchen utensils, and imaginative objects transform the well-known fairy tale into a small stage of transformation. It is precisely this focus on simple means that makes the production so strong, as it wants to be experienced rather than explained. This fits the ensemble's signature, whose works draw their special allure from the combination of puppetry, object, and material theater.

Kitchen instead of backdrop frenzy: How the theater atmosphere is created
The production thrives on proximity, pace, and a charming transformative artistry that activates the audience's imagination. Playing in a bakery with dough figures and a lot of storytelling gives Mother Holle a warm, immediate theater atmosphere, where every gesture counts. For children aged 3 and up, this creates a stage experience that does not rely on spectacle but on wonder over images, rhythms, and small theatrical surprises. The duration is about 40 minutes.

Why this guest performance in Potsdam is particularly appealing
T-Werk in Schiffbauergasse has been present with its own venue in Potsdam since 2004 and is known for its program of children's, youth, and free theater. Important for visitors: Access to the foyer and the wheelchair-accessible restrooms is on ground level, but the theater hall is only partially accessible. Parking is available directly at the South entrance; parking on the premises incurs a fee. The location is easily accessible by tram and train, and the event takes place in the T-Werk rooms.

What the audience can expect
Mother Holle by Theater Lakritz promises a finely crafted fairy tale for the whole family: poetic, humorous, and close to the essence of the original. For those who want to not only entertain children but draw them into the magic of theater, this is a clear plea for the power of storytelling. A morning that sounds like snow, wonder, and stage poetry awaits in Potsdam to be experienced live. ([t-werk.de](https://www.t-werk.de/gast-produktion/frau-holle?utm_source=openai))
