What's it about?

Cornelius Obonya / Hannes Leidinger and (musical) guests.In a dialogue between history and present, fact and interpretation, (and artistic interpretation)1626 is not over. The Upper Austrian Peasant War continues to have an impact today – in remembrance culture, research, and the social issues of our time. Between myth and present, trauma and continuity, historian Hannes Leidinger and actor Cornelius Obonya, together with musical guests, discuss "us" and "the foreign," about the effectiveness of the past in the present and future. The focus is on questions of memory, identity, and mentality, perspectives on migration and displacement, and the historical and current handling of the foreign. The experiences of women, children, and families, as well as the long-term consequences of violence and trauma, are particularly included.A project of communale oö 2026
