The Quadrature of the Old Man or A Hearth and a Crown

Frederick II – the Great! – and the Miller of Sanssouci Frederick II – the Great! – leads a carefree life in Sanssouci Palace, spanning 1,300 square meters, alone, only with his dogs. However, the luxury comes to an abrupt end when one day an eviction notice flutters into his home: The rising housing crisis demands that the King of Prussia make room for those in need. Just then, the offer from his neighbor, the Miller of Sanssouci, comes at the right time... The clattering mill has always been a thorn in Old Fritz's side, and its owner even more so, but in the face of impending homelessness, the king bites the bullet – and moves into the mill house with his greatest enemy. This puts the already strained neighborhood to yet another tough test... Prussia has never been this much fun! With the director of the Uckermark Theaters Schwedt, André Nicke (King) and Antenne Brandenburg moderator, Andreas Flügge (Miller). Guest performance in cooperation with the Uckermark Theaters Schwedt/Oder UBS! More information: Hof-Theater
