Mr. Karl tells his life story – from the 1920s to the 1950s. As an opportunist and survivor, he combines different facets of the Austrian soul. He is a petty-bourgeois follower, but he always knows how to make the most of opportunities for himself.

A homeless man is found dead on Graz's Schlossberg hill. Tour guide Tony Blauer becomes entangled in the mysterious crime and soon finds himself drawn into the world of the "Sandlers." Together with his British friend Duncan, he attempts to solve the case. A long-forgotten secret comes to light and leaves its mark on Graz and its history.

A thrilling weekend in the countryside. The wife is going to her mother's, and it's her lover's birthday. What could be better for a man in the midst of a midlife crisis? A catering service has been booked to give his lover a wonderful evening. His long-time friend has been invited as an alibi, in case anything goes wrong... Admittedly, the fact that this adultery is taking place in their shared weekend home is pretty nasty, but what's even nastier is that the long-time friend of the family is the wife's secret lover. Two hours of explanations for everyone involved. A cook who has to pose as a model, a model who can't tell soup from Sachertorte, a fictitious niece, a sick mother, and a midlife-crisis Casanova who would rather have bought a Porsche. Based on a comedy by Marc Camoletti.

Erwin Steinhauer's stage program, in which he presents a "best of" his works as an academic lecture about himself.

Everyday life is full of nastiness. Anger, frustration, and relationship crises slowly but surely drive one to rage. With "Endstation Tobsucht," Heilbutt & Rosen consistently continue their style of interactive cabaret with fast-paced scenes, music, and finely woven conferences. Mastermind Helmuth Vavra finds the ideal partner in longtime Simpl member Theresia Haiger. Co-author and H&R co-founder Berthold Foeger provides the pointed musical accompaniment.

In Mea Culpa, Christoph Schlingensief blurs a delicate line: he ignores the threshold that separates the healthy from the sick. By making his cancer the subject of an opera, premiering on the largest German-speaking theater, he is putting the art district under pressure: a wonderful institution like the Burgtheater must use its artistic resources lavishly to reveal the entire "truth" about us humans. At the end of the day, when the scenery on Janina Audick's revolving stage has finally come to rest, when Isolde's last Liebestad has been sung enchantingly beautifully by Elfriede Rezabek and indescribable jubilation breaks out, then Schlingensief is completely alone with his illness.
