Peter und der Wolf von St. Pauli

Date & Time
Wed, Mar 4, 2026, 19:00
The wild 80s on Hamburg's Kiez: the sex business is in full swing, the power struggles in the red light district are escalating and in the midst of it all, a hitman with white leather gloves is terrifying the whole scene: Werner “Mucki” Pinzner. Pinzner killed at least five pimps, including Lackschuh-Dieter and Corvette-Rolf, on behalf of neighborhood bigwig and pimp “Wiener Peter”. The series of murders ended with Pinzner's staged suicide at police headquarters - after the Kiez killer... Read full text

The wild 80s on Hamburg's Kiez: the sex business is in full swing, the power struggles in the red light district are escalating and in the midst of it all, a hitman with white leather gloves is terrifying the whole scene: Werner “Mucki” Pinzner. Pinzner killed at least five pimps, including Lackschuh-Dieter and Corvette-Rolf, on behalf of neighborhood bigwig and pimp “Wiener Peter”. The series of murders ended with Pinzner's staged suicide at police headquarters - after the Kiez killer also shot his wife Jutta and public prosecutor Wolfgang Bistry. With Peter and the Wolf of St. Pauli, the Philharmonic State Orchestra and Schmidts Tivoli are jointly bringing one of the most spectacular criminal cases in the history of the Hanseatic city to the stage: General Music Director Omer Meir Wellber, journalist Axel Brüggemann and Martin Lingnau, composer and artistic director at Schmidt, reopen the case using original documents, witness statements, images and films, transforming it into a musical stage thriller set to Prokofiev's world-famous music. Peter and the Wolf of St. Pauli tells the adventurous story of the rise of a criminal in the changing, increasingly tough neighborhood, but also of the self-sacrificing, perhaps already sick love of his wife, who ultimately goes to her death with him, of a lawyer who smuggles a gun into the police headquarters for the murderer and of the naive and completely overtaxed police. Prokofiev's classic meets St. Pauli - you've never heard the Kiez like this before. His music lends emotional and surprising perspectives to this historical criminal case. What a start to our cooperation with the Schmidt Theatres! A cooperation between the Hamburg Philharmonic State Orchestra and Schmidts Tivoli GmbH

When Peter leaves the garden gate open, all hell breaks loose! Perhaps you remember: the duck leaves the garden, the cat stalks the bird, the wolf swallows the duck, Peter saves the wolf from being shot by the hunters, and in the end the wolf is taken to the zoo in a triumphal procession. »It’s all happening here«, the audience might rightly think! And in addition to Prokofiev’s classic work for children, this entertaining and humorous family concert also features a mysterious »Intrada Wolfada« and a lively presentation of all the instruments of the orchestra...
