Why are there no princes in Switzerland, actually? Fritz, Franz and Ferdinand are to blame. Because of their cocky behaviour, the triplet princes have been magically turned into cockerels. Only the kiss of a genuine princess can save them. The three set off on an adventurous trip to a fairytale world. There is danger on the horizon: Little Red Riding Hood’s wolf is right on their heels and is ravenous for poultry… Will Fritz, Franz and Ferdinand make it or will they remain cockerels forever? Theater Gustavs Schwestern presents a captivatingly absurd new puppet show.
