Born To Be Wild: A Musical Departure Between Memory and Longing

On October 24, 2026, the Theater Regensburg invites you to Born To Be Wild (World Premiere) at the Theater am Haidplatz. The musical evening with puppets combines acting, music, and puppet theater into a touching journey through past life phases, missed opportunities, and newly awakened life energy.

When Moving Boxes Open Memories

The focus is on a man who moves into assisted living. Among boxes and left-behind items, feelings emerge that seemed long buried: longing for unfulfilled dreams, for paths not taken, and for words that were never spoken. Objects become triggers of an inner movement, while songs lead through the past like a personal soundtrack.

Music as the Stage Soundtrack of a Life

The production by Markus Schabbing combines musical narrative power with precise puppeteering. Ben Weishaupt takes on the musical direction as well as piano and synthesizer. This creates a multifaceted sound between intimate piano accompaniment, electronic colorations, and the emotional breaks of a biography.

Encounters in Assisted Living

A curious neighbor and caring staff accompany the protagonist on his journey. Gerhard Hermann plays Michael, Franziska Sörensen plays Nina as the puppeteer, Jarnoth takes on Jakob, and Eileen von Hoyningen Huene plays Sarah. Kristopher Kempf is responsible for set design and puppet construction, and David Herzog for lighting. The stage performance thrives on the interplay of body, voice, puppet, light, and musical synchronization.

Tender, Painful, and Full of Hunger for Life

Born To Be Wild focuses on the freedom that can be rediscovered even in later life phases. The production combines quiet moments with powerful musical impulses and brings memories to life in a vibrant theater evening. The atmospheric proximity of the Theater am Haidplatz enhances the focus on voices, gestures, light, and sound.

Conclusion: An Evening for Everyone Who Wants to Keep Their Inner Wildness Alive

The audience can expect a concentrated concert experience with acting, puppet theater, and live music. Born To Be Wild (World Premiere) tells of memory, encounter, and the courage to bring buried wishes back to light.
