"Glückskind" translates to "lucky child" in English.

A child is born with a lucky skin – and it is prophesied that in its fourteenth year, it will marry the king's daughter. When the king learns of this, he does everything in his power to take away the child's luck and life. However, the box in which he has it thrown into deep water does not sink. A wild bandit chief swaps a life-threatening letter, and for the beautiful princess, the brave boy even retrieves the three golden hairs of the devil from hell. This fairy tale tells of unwavering confidence, belief in luck, and the idea that even the impossible can be achieved. In a poetic blend of puppet theater, mask play, and storytelling, the theater en miniature unfolds a fantastic world with lovingly crafted figures, expressive masks, and a surprisingly versatile stage – an aesthetic delight for young and old that enchants and inspires.
