Kultur Marktlücke

From Sartre to Setzwein The name MarktLücke stands for the Marktl family itself and the concern to close this supposed gap in the theater of the region.

The themes that are performed should resonate. Whether it's Jean-Paul Sartre's "Closed Society", "3165 - Monologue of an Executioner" by Bernhard Setzwein or world premieres such as "Paulus im Häfen" - the reputation of staging plays that are critical of society is to be maintained. "It's quite an interesting thing to delve into the world of one person who executes people like another kills flies.

If you are allowed to deal with such characters, who are actually incomprehensible to you, with cruel thoughts, then you learn to understand them over time, you get very close to them. In summary, I think that through the mirror of such one understands life itself better and can judge different situations better.” Special place with special acoustics The location at the foot of Hochosterwitz Castle itself, the former supply cellar, gives such projects the space they need. In addition, the acoustics are great.

"The vault is very jagged, many stones in the walls are missing, the floor is gravel and there is not a single smooth surface. All these circumstances are responsible for making this room ideal for the theater because you can hear every supposed whisper from every corner. It also creates incredible tension. Everything is audible. Even breathing.”
