Performance will take place in the frame of Wiener Festwochen festival, from July 9 to 11 at the Jugendstiltheater am Steinhof, Wienna, Austria. One of the world's most important performing arts festivals, Wiener Festwochen critically and openly explores the wider field of performance by questioning theater as a form in a time when performing media are increasingly opening up to dialogue, exchange of ideas, knowledge and togetherness so as to encompass the complexity of cultural identities around the world. Artistic director Christophe Slagmuylder has announced an inspiring program that centres around the artists and their visions to embrace the unpredictable, broaden perspectives and reaffirm the necessity of the arts to bind a society of humans together. The festival will present some of the most notable contemporary theatre directors, choreographers and composers such as Heiner Goebbels, Tim Etchells, René Pollesch, Toshiki Okada, The Wooster Group, Nature Theater of Oklahoma, Philippe Quesne, Eszter Salamon and others. Although in its previous editions Wiener Festwochen presented Croatian theatre authors such as Oliver Frljić, Bobo Jelčić and Nataša Rajković, the performance Sad Sam Matthäus by Matija Ferlin is the first time that the festival acted as coproducer of a work by a Croatian dance artist.
