Momo brings the lost time back to Gelsenkirchen
An extraordinary family experience awaits children aged six and up at the Consol Theater: MOMO tells of friendship, fantasy, and the courage to stand up to the grey gentlemen. The school performance on October 6, 2026, combines acting, movement, humor, and music into a child-friendly theater experience.
A fantastic story about friendship and time
Momo, Beppo, Gigi, and Franco spend their time with imaginative games and exciting stories. But suddenly their city changes. Everything is supposed to become faster and more efficient, adults seem stressed, and there is less and less room for conversations, playing together, and genuine attention.
Behind this development are the grey gentlemen. As mysterious time thieves, they steal people's life time. Momo remains unaffected by the hustle and bustle. Together with the magical turtle Kassiopeia, she takes up the fight against the time thieves and advocates for friendship, listening, and spending time together.
Humorous theater with music and movement
The Consol Theater brings Michael Ende's children's book classic to the stage in a version for four actors. Humorous scenes, dynamic play, and specially composed music create a lively atmosphere where children can wonder, laugh, and cheer.
The production addresses key themes of child development: friendship, courage, imagination, and the importance of mindful encounters. The story provides an age-appropriate learning experience and invites families to discuss time pressure, attention, and togetherness after the performance.
Family-friendly performance at the Consol Theater
The performance is intended for children aged six and up and lasts about 55 minutes. The event takes place in the hall of the Consol Theater. For families, offerings such as waffles, water, juice, and coffee are available in the theater surroundings. The hall is reportedly not barrier-free.
The school performance begins on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, at 11:00 AM. Additional performances will take place on October 4 at 3:00 PM and October 7 at 11:00 AM.
A family experience with a sustainable message
MOMO gives children and adults a special moment of shared time. Amidst children's laughter, excitement, and musical impressions, a theater visit arises that combines entertainment with educational value. Families experience a brave heroine, strong friendships, and the important realization that time for other people remains precious.
Conclusion: MOMO awaits young viewers with an imaginative story, dynamic acting, and a touching message. Those who want to experience theater as shared time, learning fun, and adventure will find a special family experience at the Consol Theater.
