Birgit Minichmayr

What's it about?

The renowned actress Birgit Minichmayr and the versatile musician Martin Siewert present songs by Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill. With her very personal, raw timbre, Minichmayr traces their most important interpreter: the great Austrian actress and singer Lotte Lenya - not a muse, but a partner, co-creator of committed theater. Everything can be discussed here: male fantasies and female roles, exploitation, war, displacement and the catastrophes of modernity are considered with anger, mockery, fun and irony.
