HILDE

Either way, she and I

Hilde performs four times in November and December 2025 at Theater Drachengasse in Vienna!
The guest performance on June 21, 2025 at the Dachbodentheater in Stainz has been canceled and postponed to January 2026!

People react very differently when they learn that they have a life-threatening illness. Some continue to live as before, some go traveling, some become religious.
And some fulfill a long-cherished wish. Like our stage character, who takes her cancer as an opportunity to make an evening about Hildegard Knef, whom she admires. A ruthless evening, just the way she likes it.

Can Knef's glamor and her merciless view of herself rub off a touch of immortality on her own life? She had it, too. She called it judgment. She spoke of a before and an after.

Our protagonist will not try to tell Knef's story, but to borrow a few of her songs. She will draw strength from them.  And perhaps be able to answer some unanswered questions.
