Being a king is not that easy: you have to make decisions and make the right decisions for your subjects. Prince Lorenzo feels overwhelmed and runs away. In search of a hiding place for his crown, the insecure heir to the throne ends up in a sheep pasture. One of the sheep helps him. Out

"The baroque arias, duets and recitatives, which Karola Sophia Schmid and Solgeid Isalv provide with a warm, focused voice, combine in a convincing way with the turbulent events on the stage and develop enormous traction." Darmstadt Echo

"This humorous attention to detail runs through the entire production." Darmstadt Echo

"Director Magdalena Schnitzler would do well to trust in the singers' and actors' joy of playing." Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

Being a king is not that easy: you have to make decisions and make the right decisions for your subjects. Prince Lorenzo feels overwhelmed and runs away. In search of a hiding place for his crown, the insecure heir to the throne ends up in a sheep pasture. One of the sheep helps him. Out of gratitude, he declares the sheep his friend. The prince only wants to be able to call his friend by his name. But the sheep is simply called sheep, like everyone else in its flock. It sets out to find a name of its own. On his journey, he learns that you need a name to be allowed into the city and that names are associated with memories. But when the sheep finally earns a name, it angers all the other sheep - nobody else in the flock has a name either! In a poetic way and accompanied by baroque sounds, a search for one's own identity unfolds.
