The Schloss-Spiele took place for the 52nd time, with Wolfgang Böck in charge as artistic director for the 20th time. "The Servant of Two Masters" was a huge hit with the audience, with an impressive 94.9 percent occupancy rate.

Great results after the 20th Schloss-Spielen Kobersdorf under the artistic direction of Kammerschauspieler Wolfgang Böck: 14,912 visitors saw the play "The Servant of Two Masters" by Peter Turrini, freely adapted from Carlo Goldoni, which corresponds to an occupancy rate of 94.9 percent. 18 evenings with 4 sold-out performances were offered, and an "encore" extended the season until August 2.

Enjoyable carnival hustle and bustle
Beverly Blankenship's production lured the audience into the fun-filled carnival hustle and bustle of Venice with its crazy comedy and appropriate seriousness, with Böck and Nico Dorigatti in the leading roles. Set designer Erich Uiberlacker interwove the magical place of longing, Venice, with the Renaissance architecture of the moated castle in Kobersdorf.

Roses for Wolfgang Böck
Peter Turrini, who attended the premiere on July 2, was deeply impressed by the action on stage. And the Governor of Burgenland and Head of Cultural Affairs also gave roses: "With his twenty productions as director of Kobersdorf, Wolfgang Böck has become an important constant in Burgenland theater," said Hans Peter Doskozil. "The high level of work has been impressively demonstrated."
