Scherz, Satire, Ironie und tiefere Bedeutung (1934)

One of the many plays in which Luise appeared before heading for Hollywood, this comedy by Christian Dietrich Grabbe was written between 1822 and 1827 but had its first performance in 1907, over 70 years after the playwright’s death.

Luise appeared in the play at the Josefstadt Theatre in Vienna as part of the Max Reinhardt company. The image below shows Max Marx, Luise and Josef Zechel in the play.
