Harwstglummern: Low German Songs and Stories in the Warm Autumn Light

When dusk falls early over Mecklenburg, a special stage space opens up in the Landhaus Schwerin: On November 6, 2026, Anke Gohsmann and Wolfgang Kniep invite you to a Low German evening titled Harwstglummern. Songs, stories, and fireplace whispers lead the audience from the warm living room into the colorful autumn forest and further into a quiet, white winter landscape.

A Production between Song, Narrative and Memory

The dramaturgy of this evening thrives on the change of forms. Anke Gohsmann brings musical color to the evening as a singer, while Wolfgang Kniep, as an author and Gillhoff award winner, takes up the narrative thread. From songs and stories, a sensual stage experience emerges, presenting the Low German language not as folklore in a showcase but as a living sound world.

Candlelight, Fireplace Whispers and Mecklenburg Landscapes

The announced stage set primarily arises in the imagination of the audience: warm living room atmosphere, flickering candlelight, rustling autumn leaves, and the vastness of a white winter landscape. The production focuses on closeness, linguistic rhythm, and the quiet power of shared memory. Between chuckles and contemplation, a theater atmosphere unfolds that counters the darkness of the season with warmth for a few hours.

Low German as a Sounding Stage Art

In the art of acting and in spoken words, each dialect carries its own music. Harwstglummern utilizes this sound color for an evening that connects regional culture, literature, and music. Audience reactions may occur where narrative and song meet directly: in shared laughter, in quiet listening and in the memory of Northern German imagery.

An Evening of Cultural Connection

The Low German evening is hosted by the Förderverein der Kirche zu Kirch Stück e.V. The proceeds at the end of the event are supported through donations for the event costs and for construction projects in and around the St. Georg Church in Kirch Stück. The evening is funded by the district of Nordwestmecklenburg and the Volunteering Foundation Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

Conclusion: Mecklenburgian Warmth on Stage

Harwstglummern promises an immediate stage experience with songs, stories, and linguistic closeness. Those seeking Low German culture, literary storytelling, and an atmospheric evening event will find a softly glowing counterpoint to the dark season at the Landhaus Schwerin. Admission is free; donations at the end support the association and the St. Georg Church in Kirch Stück.
