>> OMG!! 😱 I Was In A London Theatre Play 🎭 Witness For The Prosecution - And It Was Sooo Cool!!! 😊

Jury member number 6 - before the show

Hey everyone,

In some unexpected News, I have the following update for you: I was in a real London theatre play: 'Witness For The Prosecution'. I made my London theatre debut!! 😊 It was sooo cool! How did it happen? 

I bought a regular ticket for the balcony but when they scanned my code they told me I was going to get upgraded to be Jury Member number 6! To actually be part of the play!! 😱 I asked if the view is better than from the balcony - they said yes!



A little bit about the back story. This play is based on the movie 'Witness For The Prosecution' starring German actress Marlene Dietrich. It is a classic in black and white from 1957. The movie is based on the book with the same title, written by Agatha Christie. 

If you follow my blog regularly, you know by now, that I am drawn to the theatre world as well as law movies. So this night was a perfect combination and blend of both! ✨

The play is set in 'court' = County Hall which used to be a council chamber for debating

I even had a line to say as we - the jury members - got sworn in at the beginning of the play. As an audience member you also get to sit 'in court' or on one of the balconies. Let me tell you I've had no idea my acting career would start later in life. 

And in a real London theatre play! 😊 It was a totally immersive experience and I absolutely loved it. Also because it happened so unexpectedly. It was the delayed birthday gift I did not know I needed. 🙏

'Witness For The Prosecution'

Another fun fact was, that the talented actress who had the leading role (Naomi Sheldon) of Romaine Vole, had a strong 'German accent.' And based on the script once got married in Leipzig which is very close to my hometown. She was very expressive and convincing in this role. 

It was funny and surprising at times and there were several set changes. And I was right in the middle of it. If you can't tell by now - we absolutely recommend this play! 😊 What a great experience. I am thankful.

Wenn auch Du denkst dass der einzig richtige Weg,  aus der sich immer weiter zuspitzenden Lage in der Ukraine, Gespräche und Verhandlungen statt immer weiterer Waffenlieferungen sind, kannst Du hier die Petition für den Frieden unterschreiben. Außerdem findet am 25sten Februar um 14 Uhr eine Kundgebung vor dem Brandenburger Tor in Berlin statt . Desto mehr Teilnehmer sich dort einfinden, desto mehr wird der Gesuch nach Verhandlungen die zu Frieden führen können, gehört. Solltest Du also gerade vor Ort sein und diese Einstellung teilen, kannst Du dich gern den anderen anschließen die ebenfalls durch Vernunft etwas bewirken wollen,  als die Krise durch weitere Waffenlieferungen immer weiter anzuheizen. Hier kannst Du weitere Informationen finden.

Bernd Das Brot & Ivonne The Editor Once again we bring you unique content, because who else but us would write a feature article about a grumpy piece of bread that goes by the name of 'Bernd'. Only we do this internationally. :)  The notoriously low spirited piece of dough, is famous in Germany for his TV Show ' Bernd Das Brot '. It is about him, being as grumpy as a loaf can get.   photo:  AP/ Thüringer Allgemeine To honor him, there is even a 2 meter tall statue of his likeness, located in the city center of  Erfurt, Germany since 2007. In 2009 this statue made headlines when an anonymous group abducted Bernd from his regular spot. A few weeks after that, he was found by police in a basement nearby. Their statement was: 'It is definitely him, he is ok.' Fynn and Bernd das Brot   Nobody ever really found out who brought the German cult figure into the basement and why. But he is good and back at his old spot and that is all that
