Rumpelstiltskin

The Salzburg Marionette Theatre presents a lovingly staged production of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale Rumpelstiltskin in five scenes. The story follows a mysterious little man who demands the queen’s first child as payment for his services. Whether the queen can find a way out of this tricky situation is revealed in this imaginative adaptation. A special role is played by the Salzburg Kasperl, who enriches the piece with his signature blend of humor and charm.

The performance is suitable for children aged four and up and captivates with a child-friendly narrative style, handcrafted marionettes, and stage sets from the theatre’s own workshops. The play is performed in German with English explanations. Experienced marionette players and speakers bring the characters to life and create a magical atmosphere.
