“Fantastic Times Between the Pages,” Interactive Play
For about an hour at a time, the library is transformed into a world of fantasy, and an adventurous journey full of magical encounters and surprises begins.
Visitors experience “Fantastic Times Between the Pages” and become part of a reading, as characters suddenly emerge from the books all around them. With the audience’s help, these characters must find their way back to their own world. In this unique theatrical performance, participants are invited to solve puzzles, compose poetry, and engage in debate. Above all, it’s about discovering the library in a whole new way—with lots of fun.
The interactive play was developed by the two Westphalian theater makers Nathanael Ullmann and Rico Großer.
This interactive event is suitable for people ages 16 and up. Groups start every 20 minutes between 7:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.
There is a 10.00 euro admission fee for this event. Advance ticket sales begin on October 31, 2026.
