Updated July 23, 2025 by Christopher Norman Worcester:With its recent release onto PlayStation Plus, The Witcher 3 continues to be enjoyed by a huge number of players. With this in mind, we are continuing to update our most popular Witcher 3 guides, ensuring that they remain up-to-date.
The Witcher 3: Wild Huntputs Geralt of Rivia in all sorts of interesting positions over the course of his travels. One day he’s riding unicorns, the next he’sfighting the Big Bad Wolfin a fairytale world. From the moment players pick upThe Witcher 3, they will find there is seemingly no limit to the unique situations Geralt can find himself in.
One of these situations occurs around the game’s halfway point, when Geralt realizes he mustput on a playin order to contact the doppler Dudu, an old friend. This break from monster-slaying takes place during “The Play’s the Thing,” which finds Geralt making his acting debut.
Picking the Correct Play Lines in The Play’s the Thing
Geralt isattempting to coerce the dopplerDudu out of hiding by putting on thisplay, so he has a vested interest in seeing that it runs successfully. To begin the quest, Geralt must visit Priscilla at the Kingfisher Inn. They will write the script together, making one significant choice: comedy or drama? Picking drama will result in a riot at the end of the play, so pick comedy if Geralt wants things to go quickly.
After Geralt finishes all the required tasks, he will be ready to make hisdebut on the Novigrad stage. It’s important to note that Geralt doesn’t necessarilyhaveto recite every line properly for the quest to be successful, but Geralt is a witcher, and generally speaking, he seems to prefer doing things right.

The correct choice is:“No monster is he…”
No matter whichplay linesGeralt picks inThe Witcher 3, he will always spot Dudu in the crowd. However, Geralt forgetting his lines does not fit with the lore.
Where to Find the Script in The Play’s the Thing
Players looking for a quick reminder of thecorrect play linesinThe Witcher 3can use the script writtenby Geralt and Priscilla. After the two playwrights complete their masterpiece, Geralt will be able to peruse the script at his leisure, at least until it is delivered to Irina. It can be found in theQuest Itemssection of the inventory, usually near the top with the other unseen items. It can also be found in theBookssection.
