Sixth festival day, my fourth. Friday in the Königswiesen city park.
The highlight of the evening was in the Manege im Park, twice over: Les Goulus, mounted street theatre from Paris — a mix of Ministry of Silly Walks, cast with Gumbys (Monty Python).
Then on the Schlei stage ON! aka Tequila & The Sunrise Gang: after 24 years a new name, German lyrics, the old punch. Bring it ON!
Bruchbude played the garden stage — and left no wreck behind.
Highlighted in gold is what I photographed.
Programme on Friday — stages and tents:

Seventh festival day, my fifth — and the last at the NØRDEN. Saturday on the Königswiesen.
The afternoon belonged to the third NØRDEN Air Guitar Contest on the garden stage. Beginners and veterans, some had decided only at short notice and stood up there for the first time. It was hard to judge the performances. All of them brought their very own charm.
Participants are already being sought for the next, the fourth contest — air guitar is evidently a discipline with a future, and the prizes come “on top” of the frenetic cheers of the audience.
Jens Ohle, acrobatic comedy in the Manege im Park, was the second reason for many pictures. I won’t spoil the ending — but whoever attends the show will find out soon enough.
Lùisa on the Schlei stage: expressive facial play, plus lighting that joins in. Lion’s mane included!
Of course there was more. But I don’t want to pre-empt the pictures in the series.
