Ruth Moschner Backs Cologne Musical on Women's Football Pioneers
Cologne -- The musical "KICK LIKE A WOMAN" runs from November 12, 2026 to April 11, 2027 at Depot 1 in Cologne-Mülheim, with TV host Ruth Moschner attending the VIP premiere as its ambassador.
Moschner visited rehearsals before the premiere
After a visit to the rehearsals, Moschner plans to accompany the November 12 premiere in person. She says female role models have always existed and deserve the spotlight. In her view, the pioneers of women's football changed more than the sport.
A true story from the early 1980s drives the plot
In the early 1980s, the German Football Association (DFB) barely took women's football in West Germany seriously. When Taiwan hosted the first, unofficial women's football World Championship, the association declined to take part.
