Life

Laberenz grew up in Wetter on the Ruhr . After dropping out of literature studies at the Ruhr University in Bochum , Laberenz went straight to the theater, where he began as assistant director to Jürgen Kruse and Helge Schneider at the Schauspielhaus Bochum .

He then moved to the Thalia Theater in Hamburg , where he a. a. worked as assistant director for three years in productions by Armin Petras , Michael Thalheimer , René Pollesch and Andreas Kriegenburg . Laberenz realized his first directorial work at the Thalia Theater in Hamburg ( Bernard-Marie Koltès : The Night Shortly Before the Woods ) and at the Maxim-Gorki-Theater in Berlin . In 2008 he played at the Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz in René Pollesch's production Valley of the Flying Knives .

From the 2008/09 season Martin Laberenz was engaged as in-house director at the “Skala” of the Central Theater Leipzig . There he first developed the productions Machine Winter and The Abolition of Species based on Dietmar Dath , Idiots based on Lars von Trier 's film of the same name, and Maybe - perhaps not based on Gabriele D'Annunzio . Other productions that Laberenz realized there were Dostoyevsky's Debt and Atonement (2012) and Notes from the Basement Hole (2012) and Samuel Beckett's Endgame (2013). In collaboration with Wolfram Lotz, he wrote and realized the play Zerschossene Träume (2012), a coproduction with the Ruhrfestspiele Recklinghausen .

In 2009 he was nominated as “Young Director of the Year” in the magazine theater heute . He was also seen in 2010 as an actor in René Pollesch's production Ruhrtrilogie , a co-production of the Volksbühne Berlin with the Mülheim an der Ruhr roundhouse .

During his permanent engagement in Leipzig, Laberenz was engaged as a guest director at the Schauspiel Dortmund . In the 2010/11 season he developed and staged the adaptation of Takashi Miike's film Visitor Q in the studio , a production that was only released from the age of 18 due to an incorporated porn film sequence, but found recognition and was invited to the NRW-Theatertreffen . In the 2011/12 season he staged Naked Lenz (freely based on Georg Büchner and David Cronenberg ), in which Laberenz completely dissolves the unity of space and time, but also of fiction and reality. In the 2012/13 season, Laberenz staged his third directorial work at Theater Dortmund, Die Nibelungen after Friedrich Hebbel , whose premiere was canceled at short notice for artistic reasons.

Laberenz has been working as a freelance director since the 2012/13 season. Since then he has directed a. a. at the Schauspiel Stuttgart , at the Düsseldorfer Schauspielhaus (season 2013/14, The Player ) and at the Schauspiel Hannover (season 2015/16, The Brothers Karamasow ). In the 2014/15 season he was engaged as a guest director for the first time at the Oldenburg State Theater, where he staged the Shakespeare comedy What you want as a game "with drastic, hectic slapstick", a lot of "flogging and roaring" and nudity. In the 2017/18 season he staged the comedy Pension Schöller at Theater Oberhausen .

Since 2013 he has been staging regularly at the Deutsches Theater Berlin . In the 2018/19 season he staged his staging of Peter Handke's piece of public abuse in a coproduction with the Schauspiel Stuttgart in the Kammerspiele of the Deutsches Theater .

The Oberhausen Theater wrote characteristically about Laberenz's working and directing style: "He drives dramatic conflicts so much that he drives the actors and their characters into a wild anarchy , sometimes to the brink of madness ."

The stage and costume designer Aino Laberenz is his sister.
