During the entire performance, a locomotive drives on the track, which itself stands on the turntable and is rotated, with actors and in adventurous disguises through Lummerland, the red and white mountains, the dragon city and back.

The most beloved locomotive in the world...small enough to drive across the stage of the Komische Oper in a figure eight, but big enough to transport all the performers safely. Washed with all waters and always steam in the kettle.

Propulsion is via remote controlled motors with a friction wheel on the rail and guided with two pins that engage in the gap on the platform. The batteries for the power supply also serve as a pressure weight for the friction wheel that runs on the carpet. The spoked wheels are moved separately, always depending on the speed of the locomotive.

The switch at the crossing point of the platform makes it possible to run two different circles, and when the turntable turns the rail and the locomotive runs on the rail, it sometimes appears as if it is standing still at full speed.

Thats how Emma experiences many adventures, from Mr. Turtur to meeting Nepomuk. At the latest when she fights the dragon Frau Mahlzahn, for which she dresses up again, it becomes clear that she is the undisputed star of the production.

And only at the end, when Lisi and the children are freed and everyone is back in Lummerland, does Molly steal the show a little bit.
