When masks come alive: HOKUSPOKUS at the Duisburg Theater

With HOKUSPOKUS, Familie Flöz brings a poetic mask theater to the stage that forms an impressive stage experience from creation myths, family chaos, and subtle comedy. In the Great House of the Duisburg Theater, a production unfolds that does not rely on many words and therefore has such an immediate effect.

A theater evening between origin and everyday life

In the beginning, a world of darkness, breath, and emergence opens up. Step by step, from the first love couple, a family emerges, from a paradise-like order a vibrant everyday life full of closeness, friction, and strokes of fate. The dramaturgy follows a dynamic life arc that is told with masks, physical work, music, and precise acting skills.

The magic of the mask and the power of play

In this production, Familie Flöz expands their toolbox: The performers are not only hidden behind the figures but also visibly appear as narrators, musicians, and sound artists. This creates a special theater atmosphere where light, sounds, and stage design interlock like gears. The production relies on physical play, fine mimicry in the mask, and a pace that can be playful, touching, or almost cinematic.

What the audience can expect

Those who love theater as a visual storytelling art will experience an evening full of fantasy, precision, and emotional intensity. Critics highlight the poetic density, the wit, and the strong imagery of the production; at the same time, the piece shows how universally family, love, and loss can be dealt with on stage. Audience reactions are typically particularly lively when mask play and music merge into a common stage poetry.

Practical information for the visit

The performance lasts about 1 hour and 20 minutes and runs without an intermission. It is performed in the Great House of the Duisburg Theater, a large, traditional stage space with a clear auditorium structure. For attending the theater, access via public transport, the short walk from the main train station, and the limited accessibility of the historic building are important.

Conclusion

HOKUSPOKUS is an evening for all those seeking poetic theater, mask art, and strong images. Between origin myths and family everyday life, an intense live experience is created that resonates long after. Those who embrace this special mixture of wit, melancholy, and stage magic experience the Duisburg Theater at its most impressive.
