Meet Felix the Fox: Halle's New Christmas Revue Star Debuts in 2026
A Shockwave in Whiskerwood: Mr. Fox Retires, and a New Star Rises
It's news that has sent ripples through the whimsical world of Whiskerwood: the beloved old Mr. Fox has officially retired. While the cult-favorite fox lounges in a hammock on Rainbow Island, sipping coconut milk instead of mulled wine, his successor is already poised to take the stage at Halle (Saale)'s Steintor Varieté. From now on, the clever Arctic fox Felix will step into the spotlight as the new lead in the region's most cherished Christmas revue.
A Legacy with Fresh Paws Fear not, fans of the holiday season—though the "old master" may now be trading snow for sand, the heart of the revue remains unchanged. Under the title "Felix the Fox and the Colors of Christmas," the Steintor Varieté embarks on an exciting new chapter. Little Felix, the Arctic fox, has spent years learning from his mentor and is ready to fill some very big paw prints.
Written and directed by Tillmann Meyer and Paul Bartsch, the story promises the same top-tier entertainment the whole family has come to love. This time, the adventure stretches far beyond the borders of Whiskerwood.
Adventure in the Land of Diamonds The plot whisks audiences away to the distant realm of Diamantanien, ruled by the vain Dukatello, who tries to buy his subjects' affection with lavish gifts conjured from a magical orb. When the brave Firefeather rebels against him, the tyrant retaliates with a sinister spell—one that threatens to banish not just color from the world, but friendship and love as well.
When the elf Witsch is captured, his friends—Waddle, Lumpi, and Rudi—don't hesitate. They embark on a perilous rescue mission. But can they succeed alone? And what role will Felix play, given that his eyes are actually on the powerful magic orb?
A Heartfelt Collaboration As always, the revue is the result of close teamwork between the Steintor-Förderverein e.V. and the Tanz-Zentrum No.1 e.V. Audiences can look forward to breathtaking choreography, vibrant costumes, and the signature humor that has delighted generations of Halle residents.
