Dulcinea Langfelder

It is with our deepest sorrow that we inform you of the passing of Dulcinea (Dulcy) Langfelder, a socially engaged artist, and a pioneer of the interdisciplinary arts. After a courageous battle with ovarian cancer since 2018, she passed away on Sunday, January 26, 2025, just days before her 70th birthday on February 6.

A pioneer in the multidisciplinary genre, Dulcinea Langfelder fuses dance, theatre, song, mime and video projection into singular, sensitive and daring works. She has made it her mission to make life more livable by creating shows that evoke the inner strength of the human being facing universal problems, using humour to confront difficult subject matter. Original and contemporary, a disconcerting virtuoso of irony and satire, Dulcinea propels her audience into a playful universe, inviting us to reconcile ourselves with – and even celebrate – our vulnerability.

Being of mixed background herself, Dulcinea Langfelder’s works are a plea for tolerance between peoples, interreligious reconciliation, the rapprochement of generations and overcoming human dilemma. She breaks down walls and gives a voice to those who do not have one
