He was a cartoonist, graphic designer, costume designer, opera conductor and the most popular television comedian of his time.

The evening interweaves Loriot's life with his work and social developments – from the Iron Cross to the honorary professorship, from his first drawings to his major box-office successes in cinema, from emancipation to the media revolution.

How does one become the perfect woman, and what is that supposed to mean anyway? And how should an outsider react without putting themselves in danger? The evening ends with a delightfully failed attempt, an unexpected declaration of love to all genders, and a cabaret-style reckoning with entrenched gender roles.

An evening for those affected, their loved ones and men.
