Burgtheater

After the Comédie Francaise, the Burgtheater in Vienna is Europe’s second-oldest theatre. Today, the Burgtheater, originally known as the K. K. Hoftheater nächst der Burg, complete with its three affiliated venues – the Akademietheater, Kasino and Vestibül – and a permanent ensemble of more than 80 actors and actresses, is one of Europe’s largest theatres and plays a seminal role in the German-speaking theatrical world. Every season, the Burgtheater and its affiliated venues welcome approximately 400,000 theatre-goers to some 800 performances.

“The empty promises of progress were nothing but spit in the faces of martyrs of all generations. If time is just a form of perception, or a category of reason, then the past is as present as the present. Cain continues to murder Abel. Still Nebuchadnezzar slaughters Zedekiah's sons and gouges out Zedekiah's eyes. The Kesheniev pogrom never ends. Jews are constantly being burned in Auschwitz. Those who do not have the courage to end their existence have only one way out: to kill their consciousness, to paralyze their memory, to erase the last trace of hope.” (Isaac B. Singer)

The night begins when a father threatens to kill his daughter. This drives two lovers into the Athenian forest, where they are bewitched by gender-indecipherable elves, so that each loves another. Craftsmen are also out in the forest to rehearse a tragedy involving a lion that is not to be feared. And the royal couple of the elves quarrel over an Indian boy and cause the rivers to overflow their banks...

Alceste despises the society around him for their hypocrisy and superficiality. His ideal is unconditional sincerity and truthfulness. He fanatically tries to convert those around him. Alceste's refusal to adapt to society's rules and behave diplomatically leads to bitter experiences. Since he does not praise the poet Oronte, but rather radically criticizes him, he makes an enemy of him. Alceste loses the trial brought by Oronte because he refuses to bribe the judges. He ignores the well-intentioned advice of his loyal friend Philinte.
