Alfresco theatre tonight and tomorrow!

There´s a buzz going on in the pretty little courtyard of the retirement centre at Neumarkt. It´s all part of the Keller Theater´s latest venture to bring contemporary theatre to the masses.

The production is centred on the story of Marie and Robert who are neighbours (but used to be lovers) Robert lives with his mother in a house which largely belongs to the neighboring businessmanTheophil, who married Marie when Robert was absent for several years while training. The mother of Robert, Mrs. Schoedler, wants to be carried out of the house in any case before her death.

The play takes place in a confined space in the room of Mrs. Schödler, a living space too small to allow a peaceful coexistence of such idiosyncratic characters and so it explodes, leading to murder. But there is a twist - the action is hidden from the audience at the beginning, who only hear what is going on through special headphones - providing a rather different experience to a normal night out at the theatre. The atmosphere is guaranteed in this beautiful quarter of Winti.

The performance marks the 100th anniversary of the premiere of Paul Haller's play, Theater Marie with a new production of the touching story of Marie and Robert.

The performance begins tonight and tomorrow night at 8pm.
