OH WELL, THAT’S THAT...

By and with Barbara Spitz

"Liebesg`schichten, Oh well. that´s that!" is Barbara´s second solo show. Based upon the unexpected and often anarchic events leading up to and surrounding her deaths of her parents. Accompanied by two somewhat irreverant puppets, and  Viennese songs of the 20s and 30s, Barbara explores the taboos and celebrates Vienna´s morbid and unsentimental love affair with death with warmth and humour.
