BLINDED by DELIGHT Tickets at the Friedrichstadt-Palast

What the show is about

Luci wakes up in a dream world made of the dreams she never lived. There she meets the man of her dreams, but her happiness blinds her so much that she does not trust him, and he has to fight for her. In the end Luci has to decide whether to stay sensible or find the courage to live her dreams. BLINDED by DELIGHT is a revue, not a musical: images, dance and music carry the story, not dialogue.

Who the show is for

The Grand Show suits couples, groups and families with older children, and visitors who speak no German. The show uses lighting and strobe effects and is loud; ear protection is recommended for children.
