What's it about?

Jackson from New York receives a mysterious letter from the Old World, from "a place called Upper Austria." It praises perhaps the best cake in the world: "This is how Europe tastes." Included is a sample – a signature made of currant jam, the sweet secret of the Linzer Torte. Fascinated, Jackson follows the trail of this delicacy. But even at the border to Austria, it becomes clear that his mission will not proceed without obstacles. Between local peculiarities, linguistic stumbling blocks, and culinary revelations, he encounters a tender love story and a tangible lesson in bureaucracy. After his football evening, The Derby, David Bösch dedicates his third stage play to pastries – and thus to a core element of Austrian identity. With lots of humor, music, and a wink, he celebrates not only the Linzer Torte but also the quirks of the people around it: an folk theater evening with singing, humor, and a sense for culinary delights.
