Courage, responsibility and civil courage
DIE WEISSE ROSE tells the story of the Munich resistance group of the same name led by Hans and Sophie Scholl and their comrades-in-arms. It focuses on young people who find the courage to stand up to an unjust regime - despite fear, doubt and the certainty of possible consequences.
Based on original texts, letters and documented statements, the musical paints a vivid picture of an inner awakening: from the initial run along to moral conflicts and the conscious decision for resistance, humanity and responsibility.
Created by Vera Bolten (book and direction) and Alex Melcher (music), DIE WEISSE ROSE is more than just a musical. It is an artistic statement - against indifference, for attitude, courage and responsibility. The overwhelming response from the audience as well as the extraordinary recognition from the press and expert juries show that this venture has paid off.
