A stirring theater evening at Schauspielhaus Bochum
With Catarina or How to Beautify Killing Fascists, an intense theater evening is scheduled for May 30, 2026, at Schauspielhaus Bochum, combining political intensification, family drama, and moral boundary questions in a dense production. The performance begins at 7:30 PM, lasts until 9:10 PM, and ends with a discussion with the audience.
Political theater with high stakes
Tiago Rodrigues’ widely noted play centers on a question that goes under the skin: How far can resistance go when democratic values are under pressure? The German-language production by Mateja Koležnik utilizes this tension for a precise, psychologically charged stage event that does not keep distance but demands closeness, friction, and stance.
An ensemble that densifies the space
At Schauspielhaus Bochum, the piece meets a strong ensemble cast featuring Rainer Bock, Konstantin Bühler, Felix Knopp, Ole Lagerpusch, Carla Richardsen, Mona Vojacek Koper, Alexander Wertmann, and Elsie de Brauw. The official production refers to a staging that works with moral pitfalls and develops its captivating effect precisely from that. This makes the evening particularly exciting for visitors seeking demanding spoken theater, clear directorial handwriting, and a strong audience atmosphere.
Strong resonance and plenty of discussion material
The press reviews of the production speak of an exceptional theater evening, of political theater that strikes a nerve, and of a production that engages the audience and forces them to take a position. This is precisely the unique quality of this evening: it aims not only to show but to trigger, not only to tell but to initiate discussions.
Visit with a cultural factor in Bochum
The performance will take place at the traditional Schauspielhaus Bochum at Königsallee 15. According to the house’s information, the venue is among the large stages of the house and offers around 800 seats. For arrival, besides the central location, there are also good public transport connections available; moreover, the house is accessible for people with disabilities. Those who wish to combine their theater visit with an evening in Bochum will experience a strong interplay of venue, organization, and cultural relevance.
Conclusion: This date combines political drama, strong acting, and an intense post-discussion into an evening with stance. Those who want to experience theater as contemporary art should secure their live tickets for this date at Schauspielhaus Bochum.
