Alpine Christmas
The big Christmas concert "Alpine Christmas"
From the "Annunciation" to the "Search for Inn" to the "Shepherds at the Manger", radiant boys' voices and festive brass sounds announce the good news of the divine miracle.
Christian Wolff - well-known and popular from film and television - reads stories by Silja Welte, Jörg Zink and Karl Heinrich Waggerl and conveys his impressions of the Alpine Christmas vividly and emotionally. Always fed by a vein of unusually fine humor, he evokes a deep feeling of humanity in the listener and takes them into a fairytale world.
"A Christmas treat of a special kind, an oasis of peace and contemplation. Wolff's emotional stories gave the impression of being there 'live' at the birth of the baby Jesus." (Augsburger Allgemeine)

Prinzregententheater
The Prinzregententheater, or Prince Regent Theatre, is a theatre and opera house located at 12 Prinzregentenplatz in theBavarian city of Munich, Germany.
Initiated by Ernst von Possart, the theatre was built in the Prinzregentenstrasse as a festival hall for the operas of Richard Wagner near an area where a similar project of King Ludwig II had failed some decades before. Named after Luitpold, Prince Regent of Bavaria the building was designed by Max Littmann and opened 21 August 1901 with a production of "Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg" by Richard Wagner. Like the Bayreuth theatre, the auditorium was designed to Wagner’s specifications, however an amphitheater has replaced the loges.
After the destruction of the Nationaltheater during World War II, the Prinzregententheater housed the Bavarian State Operafrom 1944 to 1963 even though it also suffered damage during the war which was not repaired until 1958. Since its renovation in 1988, the Prinzregententheater, with 1122 seats, has served also for the Bavarian Staatsschauspiel and now houses the Bavarian Theatre Academy founded by August Everding. Another theatre in the building, the Akademietheateror Academy Theatre, seats 300.
The Prince Regent theater is reached very well both by car and by public transportation MVV.
