A summer in the woods that gets under your skin

With Wolf, the Stadttheater Fürth in collaboration with the Theater Mummpitz brings an exciting children's and youth novel to the stage, dealing with courage, exclusion, and friendship with a fine sense of touch. Saša Stanišić's award-winning work, honored with the German Youth Literature Prize 2024, is presented at the Kulturforum Fürth as a lively theatrical experience for everyone aged 10 and up.

When the forest becomes a test of character

The story takes Kemi to a summer camp deep in the woods. What sounds like an adventure quickly turns into a test of character: roommate Jörg, treated as an outsider by everyone, encounters a clique that defines its power through intimidation. This is where the dramaturgy unfolds its strength: from everyday humiliation emerges a tension arc that is not pedagogically dry, but narratively dense and emotionally precise.

A novel that carries with wit and weight

Stanišić's work combines linguistic ease with a troubling present. The jury for the German Youth Literature Prize highlighted that the events are presented from the perspective of an observer who witnesses bullying, and that the narrative language remains relatable, thrilling, humorous, and witty. This mixture makes Wolf so appealing for the stage: between poetic elevation and bitter reality, a theater evening emerges that takes both children and adults seriously.

Production with a precise focus on body and sound

Inda Buschmann directs the material, Caroline Stauch is responsible for the set and costumes, Paul Bießmann for the music, and Anna-Lena Kühner for the dramaturgy. These names mark a ensemble of craftsmanship that focuses on perception rather than effects. The performance promises a dense theater atmosphere, where lighting, rhythm of play, and physicality not only illustrate the forest but make it an experiential emotional space.

Fürth experiences strong family and youth theater

In the Kulturforum Fürth, the piece unfolds in the Great Hall as an encounter with material that does not preach civil courage but makes it palpable. The question of how people support each other when group pressure dominates the scene runs like a red thread through the evening. Those seeking theater as contemporary art will find here a cleverly constructed, touching, and highly relevant stage experience.

Conclusion: Wolf promises an intense theater evening about friendship, fear, and attitude. The audience can look forward to strong images, sensitive acting, and a production that resonates long after. Anyone wanting to experience family and youth theater with literary quality should secure this date.
