The timeless Christmas classic returns - and more vividly than ever before. DREI HASELNÜSSE FÜR ASCHENBRÖDEL - DAS MUSICAL finally brings the magic of the cult film with its famous original music live on stage in winter 2026. An emotional, thrilling experience for the whole family that adds a new highlight to the Advent season.
This is what Christmas feels like live
For over 50 years, "Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella" has been one of the most important traditions of the Christmas season. Millions of people associate the movie with the best memories of winter days. The musical brings this magic back to life: from sparkling snowy landscapes and the magnificent castle to the glittering ball at which Cinderella and the Prince come together in a touching way.
The music: cult meets musical magic
The iconic title melody by Karel Svoboda - a real goosebump moment for generations - forms the musical foundation of the show. It is complemented by fresh, emotional compositions by Thomas Zaufke (The Wonderful Journey of Nils Holgersson, Grimm! and winner of the German Musical Theater Award). Together, they create a musical experience that perfectly combines nostalgia and novelty and is guaranteed to put the audience in the Christmas spirit.
A fairy tale that touches
After the death of her father, Cinderella lives with her strict stepmother, who, unlike her sister Dora, makes her work as a maid. Nevertheless, she dreams of freedom and adventure. One day, when her path leads her into the snowy forest, she meets the prince - a snowball, a laugh, a look.
When the prince invites her to the ball, her stepmother refuses to let her attend. Thanks to three magic hazelnuts, Cinderella manages to secretly attend the royal ball. At the dance, the prince only has eyes for her, but when the clock strikes midnight, Cinderella loses a shoe on the stairs. A moment that will change her fate forever.
