„Ukrainomania – Revue eines Lebens“
The production „Ukrainomania – Revue eines Lebens“ at Volkstheater Wien stands out as a compelling theatrical experience that merges historical texts with contemporary performance practices.
Based on the writings of Joseph Roth, the piece unfolds as a vibrant revue blending irony, tragedy, and music into a rich dramaturgical tapestry. It encourages audiences to reflect on European history, identity, and the performative possibilities of theatre in addressing cultural and political complexities.
Through the artistic cooperation between ensembles from Vienna and Lviv and the multilingual staging, the production fosters a transnational dialogue that resonates with both historical reflection and present-day relevance. This innovative approach invites thoughtful engagement and collective interpretation.
We express our sincere gratitude to the director and the entire creative team for their bold and nuanced artistic contribution.
We are now waiting for the premiere in Lviv within just a few months.
