VBW Musical Kids Club: workshop on ROCK ME AMADEUS
VBW Junges Musical, the cultural outreach programme of the musical division, regularly organises the VBW Musical Kids Club. Through workshops, children aged 7–12 can get a taste of musical theatre and immerse themselves in the world of current musical productions. A workshop on VBW's latest in-house production, ROCK ME AMADEUS – THE FALCO MUSICAL, was recently held.
Based on Falco's childhood dream of becoming a pop star, the participants explored their own dreams: What is my biggest dream? What do I want to be when I grow up? How do you make your dreams come true and what happens if it doesn't work out? Together with cultural mediator Margarete Reichel-Neuwirth, they rapped and danced, worked on stage presence with games and exercises, trained their self-confidence, but also talked about the work it takes to make their dreams come true and the dark side of fame. The highlight of the day was an exclusive backstage tour, which gave the children and young people the opportunity to take a look behind the scenes and get to know the theatre from a whole new perspective.
It was an afternoon full of fun, games and exercise in the historic Ronacher theatre for everyone involved.
