Satir festival in Schwechat: Political turbulence on stage!

Schwechat, Österreich - On January 11, 2025, the popular satirefestival in the theater forum Schwechat will open, which causes a lot of excitement with almost 30 program items. This festival has now become a tradition and attracts cabaret artists from a high reputation. With sizes like Gernot Kulis, Lydia Prenner-Kasper, Thomas Maurer and Caroline Athanasiadis, the audience awaits a varied and entertaining program until February 25th. The start is particularly remarkable, which is designed by Fritz Jergitsch, the founder of the satirical platform "Die daily press". He will not only present his best jokes, but also give exciting insights into everyday editorial life.

In the colorful range of performances, there are both political satire and humorous insights into the current events. The event location has already made a name for itself in the scene, and the city government of Schwechat is also humorous by facing a satirical discussion round. All of this is done in the context of a turbulent political year that moves the new Austrian federal government.
