Dollhouse (UA): A Dance Evening Between Dream, Control and Illusion
With Dollhouse, the Staatstheater Regensburg presents a world premiere on July 14, 2026, at the Theater im Antoniushaus, transforming dolls, humans, and their role models into an intense dance evening. Andrey Kaydanovskiy combines motifs from E. T. A. Hoffmann's The Sandman with a multifaceted choreography that makes proximity, artificiality, and identity tangible.

An Evening Full of Atmosphere and Friction
Dollhouse works with strong imagery, precise movement language, and a deliberately dense event atmosphere. Fog, harsh light, and occasionally bass-heavy music shape the event experience, which also touches on sensitive topics according to content notes. This creates an evening that is not only aesthetically but also emotionally demanding.

Dollhouse as a Mirror of Life
The dance evening conceptualizes the dollhouse as a projection surface: from childhood through youth to adulthood. The production shows how quickly play becomes serious and how much we invest meanings into objects, relationships, and body images. This is precisely the strength of this piece: it combines artistic expertise with a clear, contemporary audience appeal.

Direction, Sound, and Set Design Interact
Andrey Kaydanovskiy is responsible for choreography, Karoline Hogl for set design, and Christof Dienz for sound design. Together they create a sensual, sometimes disturbing, always precisely constructed theater experience. The official play page describes the production as atmospherically dense, touching, and as a choreographic journey through different stages of life.

Audience Mood and Resonance
The feedback from the house is also impressive: on the play page, audience members state, among other things, “Wonderful performance,” “extremely interesting!,” “Incredible intensity,” and “very touching.” This shows how strongly this dance evening already resonates in advance.
