In the autumn of 2015 more than 40 pupils and two actors from the Augsburg Theatre worked together with the Rapucation/PAN.OPTIKUM team led by Sigrun Fritsch, Robin Haefs, Gitanjali Schmelcher and Luka Fritsch to present the seven pranks of Max and Moritz from a new, independent perspective. Following the premiere on 23 October 2015, Bad Boys was performed 17 times; all performances were sold out at the Augsburg Brechtbühne theatre. The last performance was on 10 April 2016.
