Mein Nestroy (2007)
The Theater in der Josefstadt has a new artistic director – actor and director Herbert Föttinger. He kicked off his tenure with the world premiere of Peter Turrini's "Mein Nestroy" (My Nestroy). Turrini, who has evolved from the enfant terrible of the 1960s and 1970s to a classic of modern Austrian literature, takes on Johann Nepomuk Nestroy for the third time, who, incidentally, made his debut at the Theater in der Josefstadt in 1829. "Mein Nestroy" sheds light on Nestroy's tense relationship with his life and stage partner Marie Weiler, which lasted over thirty years. The two leading roles are played by Karl Markovics and Sandra Cervik. The opening premiere is directed by the new director Herbert Föttinger.
