Overview

You are probably right that there are two novels in my book and that, from an artistic point of view, the context may not be absolutely necessary. Georg's relationship with his beloved was always just as important to me as his relationship with the various Jews in the novel - I have just described a year in the life of Freiherr von Wergenthin, in which he came to terms with all kinds of people and problems and with himself. And after all, it didn't matter to me to prove anything: neither that Christian and Jew do not get along - or that they can get along after all - but I wanted to represent people and relationships that I have seen without any tendency.
Arthur Schnitzler to Georg Brandes, 1908

"Regarded Ostensibly told Arthur Schnitzler in his provided with many autobiographical references social novel The way out a superimposed by tragedy and egocentrism artists love story. He weaves them into the Viennese period runs late 19th century, creating a kind of parable about tensions human relationships in a social environment in which humanity and empathy are lost, anti-Semitism, nationalism, racism arise and relevant action is required.

Against the backdrop of the present, this material has astonishing topicality: cobwebs blow over from the past and expose the roots of today's right-wing attitudes. Enriched with Arthur Schnitzler's personal notes and original political voices, a social psychogram emerges, a game of lost souls, a paraphrase about love, responsibility, artistry and anchoring in life, a Viennese dance of loneliness on the volcano of increasing political radicalization.

Venue Info

Theater in der Josefstadt - Vienna
Josefstädter Str. 26

The Theater in der Josefstadt is a theater in Vienna in the eighth district of Josefstadt. It was founded in 1788 and is the oldest still performing theater in Vienna. It is often referred to colloquially as simply Die Josefstadt.

The Theater in der Josefstadt - with more than 350,000 visitors and with over 700 performances per season - is one of the most successful stages in the German-speaking theater landscape.
Known as a performance venue for the best artistic forces, the house stands for the highest quality acting. Its story began very modestly: In 1788 the stage was built to bring more sales to the "Bey den golden ostriches" inn at Josefstädter Straße 26. But as early as 1822 the house, which had become too small for the crowds, was replaced by a new building. The new theater was opened with Ludwig van Beethoven's overture "The Consecration of the House" - conducted by the master himself.
Ferdinand Raimund and Johann Nestroy played here, Johann Strauss conducted. In 1924 Max Reinhardt had the Josefstadt rebuilt - into a room for escape from the present, furnished with red damask, gold jewelry and Venetian chandelier pomp.
In this architectural jewel, a team committed to contemporary theater works today under director Herbert Föttinger on premieres and premieres and contemporary interpretations.

The theater in der Josefstadt has 564 seats.
