Giant Problems: A Clever Children's Play about Space, Rules, and Justice
When an elephant and the tallest person in the world live in a tiny room while a large room stands empty next door, real giant problems arise. The interactive children's play invites children from five years old to join on November 25, 2026, at the Young Theater Augsburg to marvel, laugh, and think about fairness together.
A Snail Guards the Large Room
Saskia is a snail without a shell and takes her job as security very seriously. She is to prevent anyone from entering the large, empty room. Because this room belongs to an owner, and the owner determines its use. Next door, Eddie the elephant and Georg the tallest person in the world are trying to get along in tight quarters.
Discussing Important Children’s Questions with Humor
What is fair? What rules help a community? When is a boundary sensible, and when is more space needed? The play makes these questions accessible for children in an age-appropriate and child-friendly way. Young visitors develop their own thoughts, express their opinions, and experience a learning experience that extends beyond the theater visit.
Music, Movement, and Interactive Theater
Music, humor, and linguistic finesse bring the unusual story vividly to the stage. Particularly appealing is the playful combination of movement, space, and the comical challenge of playing basketball in a very tight space. This creates an intense family experience filled with children's laughter, wonder, and shared time.
For Children Aged Five and Groups
The performance is aimed at children aged five and takes place in the morning. The date is intended as a group event for kindergartens and schools. The Young Theater Augsburg combines artistic quality with theater educational standards and addresses the life worlds of children and adolescents in its productions.
