On June 12th it’s that time again! In the beautiful, historic cinema hall of the Neue Schauburg in Burgdorf (Germany), the musician Jörg Walter and I are once again giving a rgraphic novel concert for my adaption of 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA based on Jules Verne (Carlsen Comics)!
Dive into Jules Verne’s fantastic underwater world with us in this reading accompanied by live music! While the images from the graphic novel roll before you, Thilo reads excerpts from the comic live to the music of Jörg Walter and brings Captain Nemo’s seaside adventures to life. The music is played on a historic concert harmonium. At the end, he’s giving is a small report that provides insights into the work of a comic artist and how he made that graphic novel. Copies of the book are welcome to be signed!

February 21st, 2024, 5:00 pm, Literaturhaus Rostock, Doberaner Straße 21, 18057 Rostsock
We are looking forward to seeing you on February 21st 2024 at 5 pm at a new reading concert for my graphic novel 20,000 MILES UNDER THE SEA (Carlsen Comics) in the Literaturhaus Rostock!
Come with us to Jules Verne’s fantastic underwater world! While the images from the graphic novel roll before your eyes, I read the dialogue from the comic and our musician Jörg Walter plays live music especially arranged and composed to let Captain Nemo’s adventures come alive!
Afterwards, I will give insights into the work of a comic artist and how I worked on the graphic novel in a small workshop report, and I will be happy to sign your copies of the book.
The reading is intended for ages 12 and up. But I can tell you that, in our experience, even smaller children cope well with the reading, which is an abridged version of the content of the graphic novel (it has to, otherwise we’d need 8 hours! But the reading with music is about 45 minutes).
In any case, we look forward to seeing you all!

At this event, we’ll take you on a fantastic underwater ‘world tour’ based on my adaption of Jules Vernes beloved classic: while the images from the graphic novel are playing before your eyes, I will read excerpts from the comic to live music improvisations by Jörg and we’ll let the adventures of Captain Nemo and his passengers come alive for you! Afterwards I give a small report (with pictures) about how I worked on the graphic novel, by that giving insights into the work of a comic book artist, and will be happy to sign your book :).
