Fancy a holiday at the northernmost point of Germany?

Then come to List on Sylt! Impressive nature, endless beaches, and a special blend of tranquility and maritime flair await you. As Germany's northernmost municipality, List is the perfect starting point for mudflat hikes, bike rides, or a relaxing day by the sea. At the harbor, you can enjoy fresh fish, browse the small shops, or take a boat tour. At the Natural Forces Adventure Center, you can experience the wind, waves, and climate up close and in a hands-on way. Whether exploring the Wadden Sea National Park, marveling at the unique shifting dunes, or unwinding at the wild Ellenbogen (Elbow) – your vacation in List will be an unforgettable nature experience.

Beauty and the Beast

Singing, dancing, acting, having fun and making new friends! In BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, we immerse ourselves together in the fairytale love story between the beautiful Belle and an enchanted prince who was transformed into a beast by a sorceress because of his unkindness.

His equally cursed servants Lumiere, Lord Unrest, Babette, as well as Madame Pottine and her son Tassilo, do everything they can to help Belle break the curse. Will they succeed before the last rose petal falls? Join in and play one of the enchanting characters, learn wonderful earworms like "Be Our Guest" or "Time Writes Tales." At the end of the week, you'll present your version of the fairy tale in costume!

Alice in Wonderland

Come with us to Wonderland! In our musical workshop, you'll step into the roles of Alice, the Blue Caterpillar, the Mad Hatter, the Red Queen, the Cheshire Cat, and many more! Over five intensive days, you'll have lots of fun learning songs and choreography, which you'll then present in a short Alice show at the end of the week. Embark on an adventurous journey where Alice must discover who she is and what she truly wants, overcoming many challenges along the way. No prior experience is necessary!

 

The highlight of the workshop is undoubtedly the grand performance at the end of the week. Family, friends, and all musical enthusiasts are warmly invited to experience the results of our intensive rehearsals live.
