Märli auf dem Berg
Patrick Frey, Rebekka Lindauer, Max Küng and Peter Schneider present their best stories - humorous, satirical, thought-provoking and highly entertaining. The musician Heidi Happy adds a dreamlike touch to the reading.
from CHF 80.–
Since 2001, the «Märli für Erwachsene» have been an evergreen on Zurich's cultural agenda - more civilised than the carnival, better dressed than the street parade and even better and cheaper than dolphin therapy. A varied programme full of humour and poetry.
