On November 8, the Schiffbau will transform into Scaryland.

From morning until night, a diverse program full of ghosts and spirits awaits you, featuring eerily beautiful stories, creative workshops, exciting panel discussions, thrilling concerts, and cool hands-on activities.

For the first edition of IMMER WIEDER SONNTAG this season, Mithu Sanyal will read from her award-winning bestseller 'Antichristie' and talk to Pınar Karabulut, co-artistic director and director of DIE DREIGROSCHENOPER, about Christie, Brecht, crime fiction and colonialism. Why does the crime genre continue to fascinate us to this day? What was Christie’s own relationship to colonialism? And how can the “CANNON SONG” be brought to the stage today?
