Beate Droppelmann and Rita Schiller
The Magic of Excitement



There's always a feeling of excitement before the start of each show at the The Kasperlbühne Schillerdrops (The Schillerdrops Glove Puppet Theatre). And, this is all part of the action. For this is the time when the kids learn the songs of the show. And so, when the curtain goes up, the kids are not only excited, but geared up as well.

And, involving the children is the most important part of Beate Droppelmann’s and Rita Schiller’s glove puppet theatre. Children love being involved. The children’s singing is special; it makes everyone part of the action, meaning, everyone who comes is a very special guest.

And, the puppets, too, are very, very special. Each has a soul and a life of its own. And, of course, all were hand-made by Beate and Rita. And, of course, these special little puppets need very special plays to perform in. Every production is Beate's and Rita's own work. These girls, too, write wonderful plays. They are brilliant playwrights. Nothing but the best for their fine little players.

But, the best thing of all is that there is no violence at all. And, this is important. The Kasperlbühne Schillerdrops is not Punch and Judy. The children have nothing to fear. The only message the children take home is one of great joy and the hope to come back again.

There's always a feeling of excitement before the start of each show. And, the excitement and magic never stop at the Kasperlbühne Schillerdrops. The Kasperlbühne Schillerdrops has been going now for more than ten years, and it's still getting better and better.

Beate Droppelmann and Rita Schiller – they have something that's special - and it's open for all special people – and that includes you - and all the little people you love.
