The translation is "Der deutsche Schlemmer", "The German Glutton", isn't it?

 From the press release:
> Aus dem umfangreichen Originaltext erarbeitete die NDB Lübeck eine
> eigene Spielfassung, Ziel der Arbeit ist eine lebendige
> Inszenierung, in der die Sprache Strickers sich dem heutigen
> Niederdeutsch annähert, ohne ihre kraftvolle Wirkung einzubüßen, und
> die auch denjenigen Zuschauern verständlich wird, die des
> Niederdeutschen nicht mächtig sind.

Süht ut, as wenn se en Spagat twischen Middelnedderdüütsch, modern
Plattdüütsch un ok noch Hoochdüütsch versöken wüllt. Wenn dat man nich
op de Been geiht... Dat müch ik geern mal hören, wat se dat henkriegen
doot.

I wish I could go.  (Even flying, my arms would be too tired to finish
crossing the Tasman, let alone making it to Lübeck. ;)  I take it there'll
be
a DVD of the performance?  If so, I'll badger the bookshop and make sure I
get it.

Thanks

Wesley Parish

Yes, Karl-Heinz.  Interestingly not *Slömer, which I would have expected
coming from Lübeck past and present. Maybe the play was written elsewhere or
we are dealing with very early German influence.

Ja, kannst maal wedder sehn: die Anzahl von Hintern auf Plätzen ist
von überwiegender
Wichtigkeit.

Atta boy! Badgering is a highly underrated thing. Besides, we wouldn't want
our Wesley to get lost at sea, would we?
