On 3 and 4 July, the association "Münchner Dionysien e.V.", the Egyptian Museum Munich, the Collection of Classical Antiquities and the Glyptothek invite children, adults, young people and families to join in the celebration of the theatre. We would like to look at the mask duty from a different perspective. Today we protect ourselves and our fellow human beings by putting on a mask. It helps us to draw a line between the human world and the dangerous cosmos of bacteria and viruses.
From a historical perspective, a mask is much more than just an object that covers the face. As an important attribute of ritual acts and theatre performances, it has a long history.
Munich owes the name "Isar-Athens" to the Königsplatz with its museums. It is in this wonderful place that the new theatre year can best be celebrated. This holiday is intended to help explain ancient cultural traditions and to build a programmatic arch from the theatre of antiquity to the immediate present:
A detailed programme with details of the starting times and locations of the individual events will soon be available on the → homepage of the Children's Theatre Marathon.
