WILHELM TELL — The Mysterious Legend of Will Tell the Truth - frei nach und von Friedrich Schiller

New glashaus summer theater at the sausage stand: WILHELM TELL or The Mysterious Legend of Will Tell The Truth freely adapted from and by Friedrich Schiller Wilhelm Tell (András Sosko) lives a modest life in the small village of Hinterstodingen, located behind Vorderstodingen, under Oberstodingen, next to Unterstodingen and between Untendrunterstodingen. His wife Hedwig (Kilian Klapper) has left him, he sees his son Walter every other week, and he even loses at canasta. Otherwise, the world is as it should be: everyone goes to the same innkeeper and the same church; troubles are not discussed and what Mayor Herr Hermann Gessler (Elena Schwarz) does is his business; at the Wolpertinger festival everyone comes together, everyone knows everyone else and no one really knows themselves. But then Tell gets himself an internet connection. Via the WWW, Wilhelm receives supposed wisdom that could turn the entire mountain village upside down: secret secrets – astounding facts – and unheard-of information about Gessler, his political plans and his hidden motives… Will Wilhelm Tell's internet connection hold? Would it be better if it didn't? It shimmers at glashaus With András Sosko as the titular hero Will Tell, Elena Schwarz as (among other things) corrupt Mayor Gessler, Kilian Klapper as Hedwig Tell (and more) and Bernhard H. Wimmer as (not only but also) mysterious mythical creature, the glashaus collective once again breathes fresh humor and new life into an old classic. Sebastian Schimböck is author and director, Elena Schwarz co-director of this Schiller adaptation – everything glashaus fans expect: quite grotesque, almost burlesque
