Press reviews
“Against an authentic and skilfully staged backdrop, the production rapidly gathers pace after its amusing opening. … Despite all twists and turns, director Roman Weishaupt succeeds admirably in transforming the complex historical context of the Reformation in sixteenth-century Graubünden into a witty, fast-paced and instructive comedy. The bold leaps in time, the constant interweaving of reality and theatre, and the active interaction with the audience turn this two-hour excursion into Reformation history into far more than a thoroughly enjoyable evening of entertainment.” - Südostschweiz, Andrin Schütz, on COMANDER, August 2017
“An exceedingly entertaining, exciting and instructive evening – packed with intelligent humour and a sharp dash of slapstick, a love story that is both humorous and touching, a pleasingly restrained use of music and song, and countless role changes and leaps through time. … Co-writers Roman Weishaupt and Remo Arpagaus have cleverly sifted, selected and expertly condensed their material, seasoning it with plenty of wit. … A challenge mastered with brio.” - Bündner Tagblatt, Jano Pajarola, on COMANDER, August 2017
