Heidi

Heidi lives in the mountains with her grandfather, the Alpöhi. As an orphan, she has found a home here. For her, there is nothing better than tending the goats with the goatherd, playing in the wide meadows and sleeping in the hay. But then Aunt Dete takes her to Frankfurt, where she is to live with a wealthy family in the big city. Their daughter Klara is in a wheelchair and is delighted to have her company. The two become friends. But Heidi is plagued by homesickness and wants nothing more than to return to the mountains. Her wish is granted and she returns to Alpöhi. When Klara visits her in the mountains, she gets to know and love Heidi’s world, which leads to many a miracle.

Director Sophia Bodamer stages the play, based on Johanna Spyri’s world-famous novel, in Swiss German and High German, with music by Anna Trauffer. Johanna Spyri would have celebrated her 200th birthday in 2027.

○ “Director Sophia Bodamer from Zurich has restaged the play […] with plenty of verve and music by Anna Trauffer. The play is a great treat for families and school groups.” arttv.ch
