The theme of the new MONDO show will be: “What if...?”. What effects do drastic life decisions have? Which path would I like to take? And the question that almost all of us ask ourselves in the course of our lives: What if I had decided this way or that way...?
You can look forward to it! It will once again be energetic, cross-genre with different dance and music styles and, of course, humorous. The show will also feature acrobatic elements.
The new cast can look forward to professional coaching and unforgettable experiences on and behind the stage! Be part of it and help shape the new show!

The Mondo Music Theater
The Mondo Musical Group (as it was called then) was founded in 2007 on the occasion of the 550th anniversary of the University of Freiburg. Under the direction of theater director Jesse Coston and the musical direction of Dominik Hormuth, 30 students presented the brilliant revue "The Show" on a large open-air stage in the university courtyard. The success was huge and since then MONDO has been thrilling Freiburg audiences with a changing student ensemble and new productions every year.
Under the direction of director Stephanie Heine, the participating students receive professional instruction in acting, dance and singing and actively shape the creative process - from an initial play idea to the finished stage production. They contribute their own ideas and perspectives, write dialogues, select musical pieces and design the stage set. This is how musical theater with a local and student connection is created, authentic, young and real.
Around 1600 spectators see the annual performances in the MensaBar. Imaginatively staged, they always come across as original and witty, fresh and cheeky, bubbling over with playfulness and at an astonishingly high level of singing and dancing. The shows are accompanied live by the MONDO Musical Band, which plays newly arranged hits from rock, pop and musicals as well as melodies composed especially for the play.
