Frida is who she is and does what she wants. When she falls ill and has to spend a long time in hospital, she is mocked by her classmates. Lonely in her hospital room, she brings a magical best friend to life in her imagination - and names her beast Frida too. The imaginary Frida is a carefree and always cheerful version of herself.
Soon the boundaries between reality and imagination become blurred in Frida's blossoming fantasy. Together with other young patients on the ward, the resilient Medi-Kids, she embarks on adventurous mental journeys and discovers her hidden superpowers in the process.
Frida & Frida is a young show with a lot of Mexican flair and full of joie de vivre, which also deals with topics such as illness and worries in a child-friendly and sensitive way. Together with the young artists on stage, our young guests in the auditorium experience that they too can overcome challenges and that they harbour true superpowers that are just waiting to be discovered: Self-confidence, imagination, humour and confidence.
The new Young Show is inspired by Frida Kahlo's early youth, long before she became a world-famous Mexican icon. Throughout her life, she suffered from the effects of polio, which she contracted as a young girl - but she never let it stop her. A tribute that Frida Kahlo would have loved: all made up and yet with real references. Full to the brim with humour and unwavering strength.
The Young Shows at the Palast set standards throughout Europe. Over 100 young talents aged between 6 and 18 take part in every performance. The young ensemble is the largest of its kind in Europe, consisting of around 240 children and teenagers from over 20 different nations.
