Black hat with a red feather, big nose, seven knives and a pepper gun - that's how we know the notorious showcase villain, the robber Hotzenplotz. Otfried Preußler invented him almost 60 years ago, and since then young and old have known and loved the lovable scoundrel, who Kasperl and Seppel put a stop to in the end.
Supervisor Dimpfelmoser has a problem: once again, the notorious robber Hotzenplotz has broken out of the fire station. That's bad! Dimpfelmoser immediately declares a state of emergency. But the lovable rascals Kasperl and Seppel have an idea: everyone knows that the robber can't keep his hands off gold and silver. And isn't the moon made of silver? It would be great if Hotzenplotz could simply be shot to the moon. The two of them quickly start building an ingenious moon rocket...
Where better to tell a story about the moon and rockets than in a planetarium? That's why the Hamburg production company HO3RRAUM Media has staged the original images based on an imaginative and elaborately produced WDR radio play adaptation especially for the full-dome format. Children aged 5 and over and adults alike will enjoy the lovingly illustrated radio play, whose visuals unfold larger than life on the large planetarium dome and whose sound is played in excellent surround sound. As soon as the robber is caught, planetarium visitors also learn in a short digression what the moon is really made of and how real astronauts manage to reach the moon.
When Otfried Preußler wrote his Räuber Hotzenplotz almost 60 years ago, he probably had no idea that his books would sell over 6,000,000 copies and be translated into 34 languages. In the meantime, three generations of enthusiastic readers have grown up with the striking ogre Hotzenplotz. With "The Robber Hotzenplotz and the Moon Rocket", a new episode from the robber's life is in circulation. Its discovery in 2018 - 5 years after Otfried Preußler's death - was a sensation. Originally written by him as a puppet show, it was rediscovered and turned into a read-aloud story by Susanne Preußler-Bitsch.
