"Make me laugh, fool!" Rigoletto obeys this command every day and with great success. Inwardly, however, he is torn apart by the tension of having to spread cheerfulness where there is nothing to laugh about, to heap biting mockery on the unfortunate and to ridicule legitimate concerns - all in order to make the everyday life of the easy-going, despotic duke as carefree and pleasant as possible do. The fear eats deeper and deeper into Rigoletto that the injustice with which he is in sympathy might one day backfire on him. Because he's guarding a secret: he's obsessed with keeping his daughter Gilda hidden. She, the pure, the innocent, should by no means come into contact with the corrupt world in which the disfigured fool has made his living.

Als Giuseppe Verdi 1850 das skandalumwitterte, in Frankreich nach der Uraufführung verbotene Drama Le roi s’amuse von Victor Hugo las, durchfuhr es ihn »wie ein Blitz, wie eine plötzliche Erleuchtung«, dass diese missgestaltete, tragische Narrenfigur voller Selbstverachtung, Menschenhass und Vaterliebe »einer Erfindung Shakespeares würdig« war. Um sich Rigoletto zu widmen, stellte er sogar seinen langgehegten (und nie realisierten) Plan zurück, eine Oper über König Lear zu komponieren. Basierend auf Verdis Meisterwerk sowie Texten von William Shakespeare und Victor Hugo entwickelt das Theater Bielefeld ein Musiktheaterstück, das die seelischen Abgründe des Titelhelden in ein neues (Klang-)Licht rückt.
