Harwstglummern: Low German Songs and Stories at Landhaus Schwerin

When autumn loses its golden light and the first winter images appear in the mind's eye, the support association of the church in Kirch Stück invites you to a special Low German evening. On Friday, November 6, 2026, Anke Gohsmann and Wolfgang Kniep combine songs, stories, and warm fireplace whispers for an atmospheric stage experience at Landhaus Schwerin.

Between Autumn Forest and Winter Landscape

Under the title Harwstglummern, the evening takes the audience into a world of candlelight, colorful autumn forests, and white pre-Christmas landscapes of Mecklenburg. Singer Anke Gohsmann adds her musical color to the Low German songs, while author and Gillhoff Prize winner Wolfgang Kniep ignites sparks of language with stories and tales.

Low German as Living Stage Art

The production emphasizes closeness, atmosphere, and the special tonal quality of the Low German language. Between song, reading, and narrative fireplace whispers, a dramaturgy of reflection emerges: cheerful, contemplative, and firmly anchored in the cultural memory of Mecklenburg. The audience can expect no distant reading, but an evening where language, music, and theatrical atmosphere come together immediately.

An Evening to Smile and Reflect

Harwstglummern focuses on the subtle transitions of the year. The songs and stories aim to temporarily dispel the dark season, bring smiles, and awaken anticipation for the Advent season. Audience reactions are likely to be particularly immediate where familiar images, regional melodic speech, and personal memories intertwine.

Cultural Engagement with Lasting Impact

The support association of the church in Kirch Stück e.V. has dedicated itself for years to promoting the Low German language and regularly organizes cultural events. The proceeds from the events support the restoration of St. Georg Church and its artistic treasures. The association was recognized for its civic engagement with a commendation at the Friedrich Lisch Memorial Prize 2017, among others.

Conclusion: A Warm Sound Against the Dark Season

Harwstglummern promises an atmospheric evening full of music, storytelling art, and Low German lifestyle. Those who appreciate regional culture, fine storytelling performance, and a cozy theatrical atmosphere will experience an evening of listening, smiling, and resonating at Landhaus Schwerin.
