About the event
Vienna is a myth. Not an excessively complicated one, yet ultimately beyond rational grasp. What is considered typically Viennese today is an attitude to life that only sets in at a certain age—at around 55+ at the earliest. One becomes sullen, nagging, intolerant, nostalgic; in short, one attains a baseline state of mind that “loathing of life” might describe rather forcefully, but comprehensively, alongside the sublime feeling of rigorous indifference and refreshing dystopia. Vienna and the Viennese, scientifically up to date with the latest research, so to speak. Without cliché, schmaltz, or any consideration whatsoever.

Venue
Theater Forum Schwechat
Ehrenbrunngasse 24, 2320 Schwechat
Located in the heart of Schwechat, on Ehrenbrunngasse, the Theater Forum Schwechat has been a firm fixture in Lower Austria's cultural scene for decades. The State of Lower Austria describes the venue as a cornerstone of the local theatre landscape, and indeed, the programme ranges from in-house productions and comedies to guest performances, cabaret, satire, and music, complemented by children's and youth theatre. The hall, with its wood-panelled walls and red rows of seats, accommodates around 140 guests and creates an intimacy between stage and audience that particularly benefits cabaret and chamber plays. Since 2002, the venue has hosted the Schwechat Satire Festival every year, providing a stage for programmes such as Michael Bauer's "10 Meter Turm" or the LästerLieder. The bistro opens one hour before the performance begins, where you can gather for a drink before the show, during the interval, and afterwards. Access is barrier-free, and wheelchair spaces are available.
