"The last verse" - what is that actually? Is it the last verse of Grandpa Bärensprung's night watchman song, which has suddenly disappeared? Or is it the last verse of Schiller's "Diver" that Cantor Kannegießer gives the boys before he enjoys his well-earned retirement? Or is it the last verse of Pastor Breithaupt's sermon at the confirmation of the now almost grown-up Heiden von Kummerow? Or is it a last verse that Ulrike gives her Martin when he goes to secondary school in Randemünde? Or is it the last verse of an aria that Charlotte von Runkelfritz performs before she finally becomes a diva? Or is it the last verse that Auguste shouts in Adele's face, causing her comb to swell and the rags to fly? Or is the last verse not a last verse at all, because the heathens of Kummerow have no desire to grow up and simply come back to Kummerow? This would, however, once again cause quite a stir in the village. And viewers of the 12th episode of "Heiden von Kummerow" can be sure that there will be no shortage of humor. So: give your diaphragm a good workout! There's still some time. But from July 2024, the Born open-air stage will be a racket again. And then you should be prepared.
