1st JEDERMANN-NIGHT
Saturday, July 25, 2015 - Start: 10:00 PM
The tale of the rich man´s dying by Hugo von Hofmannsthal
Launching this Jedermann Night, the Siemens Festival>Nights on Kapitelplatz offer the highly intriguing confrontation of the new Jedermann production with the old one by Ernst Haeussermann from 1983, in which Austria’s exceptional actor Klaus Maria Brandauer plays the rich bonvivant whom God calls before his throne to account for himself. He is surrounded by an exquisite line-up of star actors: Marthe Keller is the Paramour, Will Quadflieg embodies the voice of the Lord, Susi Nicoletti is Jedermann’s Mother, Romuald Pekny pays a call in the role of Death, Helmuth Lohner is a brilliant Devil, Karlheinz Hackl appears as the Good Companion and Alfred Böhm makes a wonderful Fat Cousin.
