The new MONDO Musiktheater production: ONE NIGHT IN MENSA
The student ensemble of the MONDO Music Theater of the Studierendenwerk presents: ONE NIGHT IN MENSA - Communication is the key!
In terms of content, the current MONDO production takes place exactly where it is set: in the "Mensa"/canteen.
Where thousands come and go every day to eat, where they indulge in culture and party in the evenings, where student life takes place.
But what happens afterwards?
What happens when people are forced to spend a night together without knowing each other beforehand?
And how do people communicate with each other in such a situation?
Once again, the MONDO Musiktheater performers romp across the stage of the MensaBar, dancing and singing musical and hip-hop songs from the last two decades and showing their full joy of acting in entertaining and funny scenes.
The experienced team around director Stephanie Heine is also part of the newest production.

The Mondo Music Theater
The Mondo Musical Group (as it was called then) was founded in 2007 on the occasion of the 550th anniversary of the University of Freiburg. Under the direction of theater director Jesse Coston and the musical direction of Dominik Hormuth, 30 students presented the brilliant revue "The Show" on a large open-air stage in the university courtyard. The success was huge and since then MONDO has been thrilling Freiburg audiences with a changing student ensemble and new productions every year.
Under the direction of director Stephanie Heine, the participating students receive professional instruction in acting, dance and singing and actively shape the creative process - from an initial play idea to the finished stage production. They contribute their own ideas and perspectives, write dialogues, select musical pieces and design the stage set. This is how musical theater with a local and student connection is created, authentic, young and real.
Around 1800 spectators see the annual performances in the MensaBar. Imaginatively staged, they always come across as original and witty, fresh and cheeky, bubbling over with playfulness and at an astonishingly high level of singing and dancing. The shows are accompanied live by the MONDO Musical Band, which plays newly arranged hits from rock, pop and musicals as well as melodies composed especially for the play.
