Dinner for One—How It All Began
A comedy by Volker Heymann
Directed by Angelika Zacek
Starring Angela Schlabinger, Lydia Wilke, and Peer Roggendorf
No birthday has been celebrated as often as Miss Sophie’s 90th with her butler James.
Playwright Volker Heymann has written a full-length play based on and centered around the legendary sketch *Dinner for One*.
A theater director is holding auditions for the roles of Miss Sophie and her butler, James. Elvira and Klaus, an unspeakably disastrous duo, audition and act out a ludicrous case of attention-seeking neurosis on stage. Roles and personal lives become wildly intertwined. One moment James and Miss Sophie are in blissful harmony; the next, they’re a bickering married couple who’ve lost all control. A tough nut to crack for the director. But in the end, everyone pulls together and stages the sketch *Dinner for One* just as it’s known from television. However, the director can’t prevent the two neurotics from getting a little out of hand in the process...
