Petershausen – "Do you have an alibi?

Or are you under suspicion?” This was the last rumor that rang through the parish hall every Monday evening.

For the 45th anniversary of the Petershausen Music Center, director Eugen Tluck and his team have undertaken an ambitious project: they are bringing the rocking musical "The Three Question Marks and the Music Thieves" to the stage as a joint project on May 21, and have been rehearsing eagerly since March .

Tluck and Barbara Blickle, as chairmen of the cultural promotion group, are pleased that the anniversary performance, for which there have been several attempts, is now working.

Because the music center was actually founded in 1975, the milestone birthday should be celebrated in 2020.

The rehearsals were already underway, but had to be stopped due to the pandemic.

Another attempt in 2021 also failed due to Corona.

But the music center and cultural promotion association stuck to the idea and concept, and everyone is now looking forward to the performance.

The Petershausen children's choir Glonntal-Lerchen is part of the ensemble, "re-launched" in January after the Corona break, as Barbara Blickle explains.

The Hohenkammer Children's Choir also takes part.

A total of 50 young singers are there, as well as soloists and a few children, who act as actors and take on the speaking roles.

In the orchestra, teachers and students from the Petershausen Music Center under the direction of Eugen Tluck accompany the musical on various instruments, which spans a musical spectrum from pop and rock to swing, tango and rap to romantic ballads.

And that picks up on a very current topic: It's about the mysterious theft of a song, which the well-known and popular child detectives Justus, Peter and Bob from the book and radio play series "The Three Question Marks" naturally track down.

A demanding challenge for the young artists.

Now, shortly before the performance, the lyrics and melodies are in place, the transitions work, only now and then the prompter gives a hint.

The children are there with great enthusiasm and enormous joy in playing.

"The way they grow into the task and develop is simply fantastic," beams Eugen Tluck.

A few more rehearsals are still pending, then it's time to "raise the curtain" and all 80 members of the ensemble, who have been diligently rehearsing and practicing, are hoping for a full house on Saturday, May 21, at 6 p.m. in the multi-purpose hall (entrance at Pfarrangerweg 6 , Free entry).
