A labyrinth performance theater: Hermann Hesse's "Steppenwolf" is the basis of the performance filled with art and culture. Artists let their learning process flow into the labyrinth, which consists of a wide variety of spaces. Each artist was given the task of designing and realizing a space. The Magic Theater was developed together over 2 weeks and then performed on 11 November 2017 from 11:11 to 12 November 23:23.
In different rooms, the theater visitors were guided through life. Basically, every visitor was on their own until the last room, the big masked ball. The aim was for the guests to play their way through the labyrinth one by one and thus all become protagonists themselves: "The world and the experience they are looking for is to be found in themselves all the time: "You know where this other world lies hidden, that it is the world of your own soul that you are looking for. I cannot give you anything that does not already exist within yourself, I cannot open up any other picture room for you than the one to your soul."
