Becoming a teenager is like riding a wild rollercoaster…

It’s thrilling, scary, and full of unexpected twists! To cope with the «circus in her mind», Zoe has found the solution: keeping a diary. Those who liked Pixar'sInside Out will definitely enjoy this refreshing and relatable coming-of-age story. Especially since actual young people take the stage! The star choir conductor Simon Halsey and the WDR Rundfunkchor have collaborated with local schools, amateur singers, and TV presenter André Gatzke to bring Zoe’s journey to life. The result? A multifaceted show of the highest standard, and a great way to ignite a conversation with your teen.
