Story theatre: The world of languages

Collecting vocabulary and rules of grammar

Der Spinnenmann Anansi will alles Wissen der Welt in einen Kürbis einfangen und für sich behalten: Kochrezepte, Bauanleitungen, Formeln aber auch Vokabeln und Grammatikregeln.

The spider man Anansi wants to capture all the knowledge in the world in a pumpkin and keep it for himself: Cooking recipes, building instructions, formulas, but also vocabulary and grammar rules.

Wilhelm von Humboldt also wanted to collect vocabulary and grammar rules. But he wanted to share them with as many people as possible. He was fascinated by different languages and learned more than 30 of them.

In two of these languages, Italian and German, Maria Carmela Marienlli and Naemi Schmidt-Laubner take their audience into the world of languages, experimenting with sounds, word chains and animal languages, telling stories about Wilhelm von Humboldt and encouraging us to preserve language as a valuable treasure.

Maria Carmela Marinelli is a storyteller, theater pedagogue (M.A.) and DaF/DaZ teacher (M.A.), trained at the Berlin University of the Arts and the Friedrich Schiller University Jena. She is involved in storytelling projects in Berlin and Saxony, performs at international storytelling festivals and runs training courses on tandem storytelling, multilingual storytelling and storytelling in the foreign language classroom at the University of Leipzig, Halle and Jena. Her storytelling is extremely lively, suggestive, full of humor, with an exuberant temperament, in German, Italian, Spanish - and when language is no longer enough, with hands, feet and a big heart, until the air burns.

Naemi Schmidt-Lauber studied acting in Innsbruck, Hamburg and New York. After 15 years in various theaters across Germany - including Hamburg, Göttingen, Münster and Jena - she moved to Berlin. She has performed at the Sophiensaele, the Theaterdiscounter and the HAU (Hebbel Am Ufer), conceived and realized plays and has also worked as a production manager since 2007, where she trained as a storyteller at the University of the Arts and has performed in various contexts ever since. Her clients include the Humboldt Forum, the Jewish Museum Berlin, the Museum of Ethnology/Japanese Palais in Dresden, the International Literature Festival Berlin, the Labyrinth Children's Museum, Grashüpfer Berlin and Theater unterm Dach. She tells stories at Berlin schools and in libraries and initiates storytelling projects, mostly in the context of cultural education with pupils. She also runs the inclusive theater group Die Grünen Bananen of berlinerSTARThilfe e.V., an association that supports people with disabilities.
