When the theater itself becomes a game
An evening at the theater as a live video game: In Let’s Play: Theater, the Koblenz theater transforms its rehearsal stage and workshops into an interactive playing field. On November 1, 2026, the audience will experience how a game character is controlled through the hidden areas of the house – on-site and in the Twitch stream.
Between rehearsal stage, workshop, and digital community
At the center is an unusual experiment of Digital Theatre. Host Markus Scherer guides the evening while Bruno Lehan, as the game character, tackles various tasks. The live audience and the online community can influence the course of events through the stream. Thus, a production is created whose progression is not entirely predetermined and changes from performance to performance.
Dramaturgy of the Unpredictable
The texts by David Gieselmann combine pointed dialogues with the open structure of a digital game. Direction and stage design by Britta Bischof make the working world of the theater itself the stage set: workshops, technical processes, and artistic trades come into the spotlight. The dramaturgy follows less a rigid plot arc than the principle of task, reaction, and improvisation.
Theater atmosphere with live camera and audience
Camera, stream, and stage events interact. The acoustics of the rehearsal stage, changing workplaces, and the audience's sharpened attention create a stage experience between acting, performance, and game show. The immediate audience reaction becomes part of the performance and blurs the boundaries between the auditorium, stage, and digital space.
A unique theater evening
The event lasts about 75 to 90 minutes and takes place without an intermission. The evening is recommended for visitors aged 16 and over. As a revival of the world premiere from January 2026, the format stands for contemporary stage art that connects theater production, streaming culture, and improvisation.
Conclusion: Those who want to experience theater not just as spectators but as an open process will find in Let’s Play: Theater an original and immediately vibrant stage experience. Secure your place on rehearsal stage 4 and experience how each task creates a new moment of theater art.
