Joseph Roth’s literary requiem creates a panorama of characters who all seem to know of the impending downfall of their cosmos. The rise and fall of a family mirrors the last decades of an epoch brilliantly described by Roth for, among other things, its European spirit. In his eyes it was a utopia that he defended until the end of his life.

«Koen Tachelet’s version honours Roth’s masterpiece in a focussed and productively fragmented way.» (Tiroler Tageszeitung)

«A cleverly re-worked elegy to the Habsburg monarchy and its personnel, a melancholic and mournful ballad on the values and times of a bygone era.» (Kurier)

World premiere
14.12.2017 Burgtheater Wien (Director: Johan Simons)
