About the event
Santa Junior – A Handover Full of Hurdles
Shortly before Christmas, Santa Claus’s son faces a huge challenge: he is supposed to take over the family business and deliver the presents this very year. But Santa Junior has neither experience in toymaking nor any idea how to fly a sleigh. He receives support from Flip, the lively elf and supposedly Santa’s right-hand man. Yet Flip is far less familiar with the procedures than he claims to be. His well-intentioned ideas lead to hilarious chaos in the Christmas workshop.
In this 12th in-house production, audiences can look forward not only to plenty of humour, but also first-class acrobatics, spectacular acts never before seen at the Papierfabrik, and atmospheric live vocals that accompany and enrich the story.
Will Santa Junior manage to finish all the presents in time? And can Flip prevent the workshop from descending into complete chaos? A turbulent Christmas story for the whole family.

Venue
Papierfabrik Variete, Klein-Neusiedl
Kirchenlatz 9, 2431 Klein-Neusiedl
One of Lower Austria's oldest surviving factories stands on the Fischa in Klein-Neusiedl. The paper factory was built at the end of the 18th century on the initiative of Viennese wholesaler Ignaz Theodor Pachner. For a long time, paper for banknotes and government securities was even printed here, but production ceased in the early 1930s. The three-storey main building and the historic outbuildings are now listed as protected monuments. Since 2023, former circus artists Seraina and Marc Dorffner have been running a permanent variety theatre in the renovated production building. Under high arched windows, the audience sits at tables or in the stands and experiences acrobatics, magic and in-house productions, as well as cabaret with Dirk Stermann or Malarina, the Teilzeitdivas or classical music in the programme "Haydn and the Movies". The evening includes the in-house Varieté Bar with wine, beer, tarte flambée and pretzels. It opens before the performance, so the old factory walls become a meeting point even before the show.
