BAD BOYS is a cooperation for the 150th anniversary of the first edition of Wilhelm Busch’s Max und Moritz with Rapucation, the Augsburg Theatre and Aktionstheater PAN.OPTIKUM.
Over 40 students and two actors from the Augsburg Theatre worked with the Rapucation/PAN.OPTIKUM team led by Sigrun Fritsch, Robin Haefs, Gitanjali Schmelcher and Luka Fritsch in autumn 2015 to create a new, idiosyncratic take on the seven pranks of Max and Moritz.
After the premiere on 23 October 2015, Bad Boys was performed 17 times to sold-out audiences at Augsburg’s Brechtbühne.
The last performance was on 10 April 2016.
