This house was once built by Rupert d’Oyly Carte, the renowned director of the Savoy Theater in London. At the beginning of the 20th century, his family lived in generous luxury. The glorious history and the musical legacy of the family are reflected in the atmosphere of the property, which is surrounded by a breathtaking view of the sea and an idyllic garden.

The artists Kerstin Bachtler and Bodo Redner discovered Coleton Fishacre and were immediately captivated by the history of the house and his former residents. Through extensive research, they dipped deep into the history of the d’Oyly Carte family and created a play that reflects both the glamorous and the tragic aspects of their lives.

During the piece, the family's turbulent life is presented in a lively way, from the happy festivities and sailing tours to the dark shadows, which were thrown by the tragic loss of son Michael, who died in a car accident. The piece sits down intensively with the despair of parents Rupert and Dorothy, who have to learn to deal with the immeasurable pain. "The White Sail" is not only a play, it is also an honest and touching document about the loss and grief in a culturally forming family.

The audience has the opportunity to exchange ideas about what is seen after the admission, which takes place from 7 p.m. Admission to the performance is 12 euros and the cards are already available in the Pirmasens city library. Reservations can be made by phone or email.
