Story

A battle for love and justice

The year is 1557. The royal ship Tre Kronor is on a secret mission. Its destination: the legendary island of Rulantica, where the source of life is said to be found. Like all the sailors aboard, ship’s boy Fin hopes this unique mission will bring him honor and fame. This only makes his disappointment more bitter when he has to stay on board while the captain and other sailors head to the island to find the source and to fill their water.

Fin secretly goes to the island to beat the captain in his quest and prove to everyone that he is more than a simple ship's boy. As he travels on his journey he falls in love with the mermaid Kailani, which eventually leads him to the source of life. Almost at the end of his quest he learns that the plundering of spring water would mean the end of the island.

Will he abandon his grand goal in order to protect Rulantica and its mysterious inhabitants from the captain's unbridled greed? Torn between the prospect of fame and his growing affection for Rulantica, Fin sparks a battle for love and justice.

Expressive music

and thrilling singing

Wonderful melodies, played by a 60-piece symphony orchestra from Berlin as well as top soloists from the world of musicals, will take the audience on a journey through time that both fascinates and transports them to another world. The expressive music of the Freiburg composer Hendrik Schwarzer once again provides an emotional delight.

"The orchestra was recorded separately. That is, the strings were recorded first, then the woodwinds, then the brass, then the solo vocals and then the choir singing. The individual recordings have allowed us to create better harmonisation." Hendrik Schwarzer

"The creation of the musical is a dynamic process in which many experts from different fields interact. Every new piece is a great mountain to overcome. At times, it can be scary, because so many things have to be considered." Ullrich Grawunder

The musical is a project straight from my heart. As an avid musician, it's a great feeling for me to see how a small idea becomes a passionate spectacle filled with visually stunning scenes and emotional music. It's always a goosebumps moment when you hear the melodies written by Hendrik Schwarzer and brought to life by the 60-member Symphony Orchestra from Berlin. With Rulantica - The Musical we want to take the whole family on a fascinating journey through time and have them experience emotional moments with our great actors. I am very proud that we are able to realise the second in-house musical production at the Europa-Park Teatro and inspire hundreds of visitors every day.

Hendrik Schwarzer
Composer

You work on a piece for so many months, you work on details, you break passages, you make improvements, but in the end, the day comes when you must release the music and the piece into the world.’ That's the great thing about composing. Because you can only guess how a member of the audience will see Rulantica - The Musical for the first time in its entirety, then also how it feels and how it affects them. The tension lasts until the very end.
