Bad Hersfeld Festspiele - Angel Sandy Mölling plays theater with her son
No-Angels Singer Sandy Mölling brings a unique guest as an actress to the Bad Hersfeld Festspiele for the piece "Like in Heaven". For the first time, the singer and actress will be on stage with her son Noah, as the festival management announces. "Like in Heaven" had its premiere tonight. In addition to Brigitte Grothum ("Three Ladies at the Grill") and the former TV commissioner Walter Kreye ("The Old One"), the ensemble also includes Noah. According to the festival, Noah shares the role with other children.
Mölling (43) embodies Gabriella in the play, who is married to a violent man. Singing gives her self-confidence. Noah plays Gabriella's son. According to the festival, Noah shares the role with other child actors, as children are not allowed to perform every night.
Festival Intendant Jörn Hinkel stages the play himself, which is based on the same-named cinema success. About the role of Gabriela, he says: "She is constantly reminded by her husband that she has no talent, that she should take care of the children and not waste her time in the choir."
Mölling finds the casting fascinating: "I find the production wonderful, that such a well-known artist, who has traveled the world with the No Angels, embodies a woman who doesn't trust her own singing, who has to discover her voice for herself."
