Kom(m)ödchen

Other participants in the initial program "Positiv dagegen", which had its premiere on March 29, 1947, were Werner Vielhaber, Bernd Nesselhut, Hans Walter Clasen, Eduard Marwitz, Iris Fanslau, and Ruth Henrichs.

In 1983, Lore Lorentz decided to pursue solo appearances and left the Kom(m)ödchen ensemble.

With his death in 1993, Lore gave up her solo career and returned to lead the Kom(m)ödchen.

The public square in front of the theater was renamed the "Kay-und-Lore-Lorentz-Platz" in their honor, and there is also a city school named the "Lore Lorentz Schule".

Well-known members of the ensemble have included Thomas Freitag, Harald Schmidt, Hugo Egon Balder, and Volker Pispers.
