\u201cWisdom is more important than beauty,\u201d says Athena. But is that really true? Or is the one who knows how to party the best\u2014like Dionysus, the party hero\u2014actually better off? In the household of Zeus, the father of the gods, every child wants to be the best. So Zeus and his wife Hera encourage their offspring to compete in the Olympian Games. \u2014 There are delightful reactions and refreshing scenes as the young gods show off their talents. And inevitably, the audience will find themselves thinking of one or two people from their own lives who fit the bill. <\/span><\/p>\n

A Flagship Event<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

The play was a masterpiece by the youngest students at Steinm\u00fchle and, at the same time, a showcase event for the music department. Under the direction of Ulrike Wilmsmeyer (\u201cMrs. Musical\u201d) and her colleagues Daniel Sans and Frank Wemme, the student musical \u201cG\u00f6tterolympiade\u201d provided an entertaining evening for a packed house. Band 6, together with Frank Wemme, provided the musical accompaniment. Ines Vielhaben was responsible for poster design and recording. Sam Kempkes and his team, true to their team name, handled sound and lighting. <\/span><\/p>\n

The most original scenes will soon be available on the kulturm\u00fchle.de platform.<\/span><\/p>\n
