When Heaven Asks Questions: A Moving Live Audio Play in Heilbronn
On October 19, 2026, an unusual gateway to heaven opens in the Deutschhof cellar of the Volkshochschule Heilbronn. The live audio play Heaven, Again combines fine humor, touching questions of life, and a skillfully created sound world into a special stage experience.
A Hospice Helper Between Heaven and Earth
Hannah is facing her last and perhaps greatest challenge. At the entrance to paradise, there is no radiant welcome, but rather a divine questionnaire. Only honest answers grant access. However, Hannah harbors a secret and tries to save herself from the situation with wit, evasions, and surprising twists.
From the humorous journey, an emotional rollercoaster develops. The dramaturgy guides the audience through a thrilling game of hide and seek between heaven and earth, where questions of guilt, truth, farewell, and the value of life increasingly come to the forefront.
Acting Meets Lively Soundscapes
Petra Auer embodies Hannah with refreshing humor and a keen eye for human contradictions. As an actress and author, she combines precise character portrayal with an immediate, personal stage presence. Her performance juxtaposes comedic moments with quiet realizations.
Eva Keller-Schweers creates the sounds live, giving the production a special acoustic depth. Voices, sounds, and noise impulses become part of the narrative. Thus, an audio play unfolds before the audience's eyes, where their imagination becomes the set design and the theater atmosphere grows directly from the sound.
Humor with Human Warmth
Heaven, Again approaches the themes of death and dying not solely with heaviness. The production relies on a finely calibrated connection of comedy, contemplation, and emotional truthfulness. Hannah's encounters with God and the heavenly helpers open a space for questions that resonate beyond the evening.
The production comes from Petra Auer, who translates personal experiences from her work as a hospice helper into a theatrical form as both an author and actress. Directed by Petra Wintersteller, the live audio play stands for a stage art that connects entertainment and engagement.
An Evening in the Sign of Life
The performance is taking place in cooperation with the Ambulant Hospice Service Heilbronn e. V. It starts at 7:00 PM, with the event planned to end at 8:30 PM. Admission is free. Seats are available at the Volkshochschule Heilbronn.
The audience can expect an intense stage experience with pointed acting, surprising sound moments, and a story that allows for both laughter and quiet moments. Those who experience theater as an encounter with existential questions and human closeness will find a special evening in Heaven, Again.
Conclusion: A Heavenly Play with Earthly Questions
This live audio play plunges you right into a turbulent game of cat and mouse between Hannah, heaven, and her own secrets. Experience Petra Auer and Eva Keller-Schweers live in Heilbronn and discover how voice, sound, and acting create an entire world.
