Kinderlieder aus der Hölle

What kind of toxic mother-son relationship is the one in the children’s song “Hänschen klein”? And what kind of threat is it if God can decide NOT to wake you up again in the lullaby “Guten Abend, gut Nacht”? And these fairy tales! What illness does Rotkäppchen’s grandmother have that can be cured with wine?
In a cabaret horror show suitable for the xylophone, Caroline Athanasiadis and Klaus Oppitz take a closer look at the stories of our childhood. And they ask themselves what a modern children’s song should sound like. One that lulls the little ones into a sense of security as they head towards a life between economic crisis, divorce and heart attack.
