Staged Concert after the book by Otfried Preußler
The Little Witch lives in a gingerbread cottage with her friend Abraxas, a talking raven. She dreams of dancing with the other witches at the top of the Blocksberg mountain on Walpurgis Night. Even though she is strictly forbidden from doing so because she’s too young, she flies up there secretly – and is caught in the act. For one year, she has to study for a big exam which will allow her to attend the next Walpurgis Dance. She studies hard and puts lots of good spells on things, helping a flower girl and desperate children. On the day of the exam, she is calm, but Abraxas worries whether all this will end well…
