"The puppet show has nothing to do with Punch and Judy!" Thomas assured me, where I spent my weekend, ahead of the visit of the puppet theater Halle / Saale. "This is nothing to do with puppets and stuff!" So I went most expectantly into the sold-out performance of " Grete L. and their K " on Friday evening. But after being welcomed by Atif Hussein (Artistic Director) and the main beam of the headlights and dipped devil Kasper puppet form to beat and in style with small wooden boards in a children's show. A narrative voice from the off:... "Kasper and devils sworn enemies for centuries pulls again and again, the devil the worst of makes him angry, he wants to bring the clown might be found but how through the power of..? love you! " And the love we could. As it became clear very soon, the play was anything but child-friendly. With crude lyrics, excessive love scenes painted and realistic relationship crises, the adult audience has been very well addressed and maintained. 
with a most unconventional end and a satirical, kitschy departure took the play to an end and the two puppeteers were showered with applause for several minutes. On Saturday - after a bike ride along the hall - my weekend went on more culturally dignified level: We went to the movies. In the small house LUX film and I saw Thomas "Slumdog Millionaire" . A smart, well-made and award-winning film about the great love, great poverty and the hope that a child from the slum to millions of poor audience of the Indian is "Millionaire." If you have a chance to look at him, so does ! it
