Näher zu thee, hehr Beidltum Österreich/closer to thou als Gott
Moronism is gaining the upper hand in Öster_land
Following Worte des lebendigen Rottens [Words of rotting alive] and Oh Wien, siehe die Sau (dein Land) [Oh Vienna, see the pig], the author Lydia Haider and ensemble deliver some harsh truths about the political excesses of the far-right in Austria in a performative reading of her new text Nearer to thee, hehr Beidltum Österreich/closer to thou than God. The developments in Austria must be read as a fatal example for the devastating situation in Germany and throughout Europe.
