Previews: MELODIENREISE RORY SIX GREATEST HITS at BURG PERCHTOLDSDORF
The Belgian-born Singer/Composer found his second home fifteen years ago in Vienna. He has been part of numerous musical productions and played some leading roles (like Old Deuteronomy in the latest Vienna CATS production). Apart from his OnStage career, Six has written a couple of Musicals (Wenn Rosenblätter fallen, Ein wenig Farbe, Luna, Die Mädchen von Oostende, Namen an der Wand, Weihnachtsengel küsst man nicht, Mord auf Sendung, Finder, Ein Date zu fünft, and Künstler unbekannt) and founded the Theatercouch in Vienna. Rory Six has made himself a name on and offstage in the German-speaking Musical area. Six had a significant impact on the Off-Musical scene in Vienna. His Theatercouch was the #1 adress for highly anticipated Off-productions. It feels like only yesterday when Six presented his first Musical; what a joy and a profoundly and honestly touching experience. Of course, it is time to celebrate his career and birthday.
Review: HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH at DAS VINDOBONA
What did our critic think of HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH at DAS VINDOBONA? The Glam-Rock Musical Sensation with Music and Lyrics by Stephen Trask and a Book by John Cameron Mitchell is back in Austria for a limited run at the Vindobona. What a way to start the year. After Hedwig's first appearance in 2006, starring Andreas Bieber in the Leading Role and Anke Fielder as Yitzhak and the highly acclaimed production at the Landestheater Linz with Riccardo Greco in Heels and Ariana Schirasi-Fard as his Backup-Singer it's Drew Sarich together with his wife Ann Mandrella, to tell the story of Hansel Schmidt and his Angry Inch.
