Get matched →Eine Träne. Ein Lächeln. (A Tear. A Smile.) is an interactive literary-musical performance based on Luna Al-Mousli's book of the same name. It transports audiences into her childhood in Damascus, Syria, combining colors, sounds, and stories into a vivid portrait of the city. Street noises, market voices, and natural melodies interweave with Luna's narration in bilingual German and Arabic texts, reviving memories. Through storytelling and music, Luna recreates the atmosphere of Damascus—sometimes joyful, sometimes quiet, but always full of imagination and warmth.
This interactive performance invites listeners to hear, marvel, dream, and participate. Everyone can become part of the stories and experience how music and memories create a sense of home that connects us all.
Duration: 45 minutes. For children ages 6 and up and their families.
