About

Eulenspiegel premieres at Theater Duisburg on Friday, 13 November 2026 at 19:30. In his first work with the youth club, actor Patrick Dollas brings the figure's origins to the stage as coarse folk theatre.

What to expect

The premiere presents Eulenspiegel as a fool, juggler, vagabond, troublemaker, master of disguise and father of schadenfreude, both loved and feared; where he appears, fun and harm to others are guaranteed.

Till is driven and tied to no place or people; his companions are stones, and his world is full of dark signs, voices, fear and madness.

He laughs not because the world is funny, but because it is unbearable.

The old Till lies on his deathbed, haunted by voices of those he wronged, and asks death for a delay.

The production asks when laughter turns to crying and when glee turns to pity.

A collection of Dil Ulenspiegel tales first appeared in 1510, new variations followed over the centuries, and in his first work with the youth club actor Patrick Dollas brings the figure's origins to the stage as coarse folk theatre.
