Kasper and the magic coat - Zehntscheune, Gassenweinfest Merdingen

From September 5 to 8, 2025, the wonderful Gassenweinfest will once again take place in Merdingen. The Freiburger Puppenbühne will be performing four different plays for families over the course of the festival.

"Kasper and the magic coat" is a puppet theater production in 2 acts with a
performance duration of approx. 45 minutes.

On a trip around the world, Kasper and his dog Bello stop off in the distant Orient. There they set off in search of the mysterious cloak of magic, which is in the possession of the generous Caliph. He rules his kingdom with great compassion and his heart in the right place. Thanks to the magical cloak, neither fear, hunger nor suffering can arise.

But as soon as Kasper arrives at his destination, it turns out that the cloak has been damaged by an accident and the tailor who rushes to his aid is not who he claims to be. With skill and fake promises, the coat falls into the wrong hands and disappears from the palace of glittering towers.

Before any major mischief can happen, Kasper sets off in search of the scoundrel, who is already using every means at his disposal to exploit the coat for his own purposes.
Fortunately, Kasper and Bello are able to help and avert great evil. And thanks to the miraculous fairy and the support of the children, the caliph will surely be able to rule his country peacefully again in the end.

Dr. Johannes, Karin and David Minuth are known far beyond the borders of Freiburg for their fairytale puppet shows. They write their own texts and also design and create the enchanting puppets.
