Who claims that Germans lack humor clearly doesn't know Loriot! His wit is subtle and charming, and his characters are truly unique. The genius behind them doesn't look down from above but stands alongside them.

At Hofspielhaus, the sofa that has become a cultural icon due to Loriot is surrounded by characters that amuse us because they are so relatable and familiar. In a rapid succession of sketches, legendary figures gather--from the Steinlaus to 'Opa Hoppenstedt', from 'Herrn Müller-Lüdenscheid' and 'Doktor Klöbner' to 'Lord Heskerth-Fortescue von Gwyneth Molesworth in Nether Addlethorpe'.

Alongside classics like 'Das Jodeldiplom' and 'Die Nudel', seldom-seen scenes of remarkable relevance invite the audience to rediscover Loriot's comedic genius!
