"Adventure holiday" with Werner Momsen

Werner Momsen is different from the others. Skin made of polypropylene, hair made of polyacrylic and nothing but foam on the inside. Hazardous waste from birth - not an easy life. But he loves it anyway. He's determined by others, but often freer than his black companion, who is always in the back. Because Werner can do and say things that only he is allowed to do and say. He will be performing his programme "Abenteuer Urlaub" on Saturday, 13 April at 8 pm at the Bürgerhaus Nieder-Roden, Römerstraße 15. "When people ask me why I travel, I answer: I know what I'm fleeing from, but not what I'm looking for." After four hours in the travel agency with Liesbeth, Werner Momsen is exhausted. They want to leave, they can agree on that. But not where. His wife sends him on stage with a truckload of catalogues so that he can decide where he wants to go. Not today, not tomorrow, no, in a year's time! Hiking, camping, travelling abroad or a cruise? Getting to know the country and its people, being active or frying on a towel covered in sand and suntan lotion? What should you do if you want your holiday to be the best weeks of the year? Do you really have to visit every church and eat mutton testicles in the world's cookshops to get away from it all? Sure, people are curious and want to know whether there's something over the horizon, but their organism is not made for constant changes of location with new climate and time zones. And certainly not for air conditioning. Visitors can take a break from everyday life and laugh about all the activities they do on holiday, especially about the things that aren't funny at all. Advance tickets from 15 euros are available at the Agency for Culture, Sport and Volunteering in the Alte Apotheke, Schwesternstraße 10, as well as online at www.frankfurtticket.de. Remaining tickets can be purchased at the box office from 7 pm.
