Volkstheater Vienna – Schedule, Program & Tickets

Volkstheater

Since the Viennese Volktheater (then to distinguish it from other national platforms of the Dual Monarchy under the name Deutsches Volkstheater) was founded in 1889, the Viennese theater scene is still divided sharply by stalls: the Burgtheater is about reserved as an imperial private theater of the aristocracy.

"Prove to me that horses can fly."

California 150 years ago. Eadweard Muybridge (1830-1904), who immigrated from England, is considered an enigmatic genius and excellent photographer.

Director Stephan Kimmig stages Virginie Despentes' latest, eloquent and humorous epistolary novel about pretty much every currently relevant social debate: from #MeToo, hate on the Internet to class and sexual identity. A passionate, unabashed and yet conciliatory plea for the need to remain vulnerable and in dialogue with one another, despite all differences of opinion and possible hurt.

Director Claudia Bauer returns humanistää! returns to the Volkstheater – and once again devotes itself to an icon of Austrian post-war literature.
The splendor is gone, the monarchy is gone, even the Prater, Hitler and Haider are gone, no more Felix Austria, no world empire, nothing. In the Natural History Museum, death looks macabrely through all the glass panes of the old display cases, the glass eyes of the dead animals glow. The Viennese are experts in preservation and specialists in appearance. They are hugging taxidermists. And death can look more lively and powerful here than life itself. Franz Joseph, Maria Theresia, Sisi - they all still live here, and the ghosts from Heldenplatz also cheer and scream. The dead walk among us, and they are very lively.
