AUF ZUCKER - FUNDUS THEATER Research Theater - 4 – 12 yrs. + Adults

Description

A self-experiment with seven sweets
Sugar is loved, but also fought over – children on one side, adults on the other. In our production, we want to find out why sugar has such power over us. And this will be a self-experiment. Using seven sweets, we will test together with the audience: What exactly is sugar and how is it produced? Can you dance with sugar? What do we experience in a sugar rush, and why do we always want more? What sweets do children eat in Brazil? What does it really mean when something is sweet? And above all: what stories does sugar have to tell? Sugar has always been fought over. Since the time it was a spice from India, sugar has been everywhere: on ships, with which Christopher Columbus supposedly discovered the Sugar Islands, and even in ordinary beets. To make our experiment work well, we ask our audience to avoid eating sugar before attending the performance! The amount of sugar given during the performance will not exceed the average daily sugar intake of children in Hamburg.
