A fairy tale puppet theater in the Mueßer Museum Village
On October 21, 2026, the Siemitz Village Theater will present Puss in Boots, a finely crafted puppet show at the Schwerin-Mueß Open Air Museum. Two performances will fill the holiday Wednesday with fairy-tale art, music, and that special theater atmosphere where wonder and humor meet directly.
A classic with temperament and cunning
The Grimm fairy tale unfolds its full power on stage: A youngest miller's son, disadvantaged by chance, encounters a cat that can do much more than purr. Cleverness, language, and determined ingenuity turn the seemingly small helper into a larger-than-life figure. The Siemitz Village Theater describes the piece as a puppet show with clowning and music for children aged 4 and up - a mix that shows its strongest effect in puppet theater.
Play with closeness, rhythm, and lively music
The ensemble around Sabine Zinnecker and Dietmar Staskowiak stands for live musical and sung theater work. This signature also shapes the approach to Puss in Boots: not museum-like, but immediate, playful, and craft-precise. Characters, voices, and musical accents create a dense stage world in which children not only follow the fairy tale but physically experience it. The dramaturgy relies on movement, surprise, and clear images - ideal conditions for a stage experience that takes young audiences seriously.
A special theater atmosphere develops in the museum village
The Schwerin-Mueß Open Air Museum, with its historic buildings and open surroundings, creates an atmospheric setting that adds depth to the piece. Here, the folklore museum meets family culture, open-air charm meets theatrical art. There are play stations on the lawn for children, and for adults, a day that combines theater and an outing into a shared experience. The combination of performance and museum visit strengthens the anticipation for this special holiday offer.
