About

Kasperl is Bavaria's classic hand-puppet hero, and Stephan Mikat of the Chiemsee Kasperltheater plays him in broad Bavarian dialect. Kids shout warnings, answer back and help Kasperl out of trouble, while soap bubbles and foam drift over the front rows. Each story is gentle and violence-free, with a happy ending. Kids with little German still follow the slapstick, though most of the jokes are spoken.

Kids €10, adults €12 online, €13 at the door
