Linzer Torte mit Schlag
A Pastry Parade. Jackson from New York receives a mysterious letter from the old world, from "a place called Upper Austria." It praises what may be the world's best cake: "This is what Europe tastes like." Enclosed is a sample – a signature in redcurrant jam, the sweet secret of the Linzer torte. Fascinated, Jackson follows the trail of this delicacy. But as soon as he reaches the Austrian border, it becomes clear that his mission will not proceed without obstacles. Between local peculiarities, linguistic stumbling blocks, and culinary revelations, he encounters a tender love story and a real lesson in bureaucracy. Following his football evening Das Derby, David Bösch devotes his third stage text to pastries – and thus to a cornerstone of Austrian identity. With plenty of humor, music, and a wink of the eye, he celebrates not only the Linzer torte but also the quirks of the people surrounding it: a folk theater evening with song, humor, and an appreciation for culinary arts.
