entertaining, amusing, amazing and moving.
Every summer the Austrian company Theatre IRRWISCH roams the streets of Europe and beyond playing their favourite instrument: screwy humour and lively, infectious streettheatre.
Their spectacular acrobatics pleasantly sprinkled with witty poetry and utter madness show their ardent love to tell stories and will possibly change audiences way of looking the world.
Please find enclosed informations about 3 of their mainly non-verbal and extremely funny performances. IRRWISCH repertoire includes Comedy Streettheatre, acrobatic Stilt Theatre and clownesque Fire Theatre.
For further informations or questions about touring availability, please contact us, we would be happy to get in touch with you!
All the best and greetings from Vienna!

WEGENSTREITS GUESTS – stilttheatre
when acrobatics becomes poetry
|
Everywhere the crazy figures in tails and on stilts appear the public is full of enthusiasm. They don’t talk, but they communicate a great deal. They don’t stop at anything or anyone – they climb into other people’s balconys on the first floor, exchange a bicycle for a piece of furniture, hi-jack buses and trams.
But they give everything back – usually to someone else, just to give pleasure and that, amidst the chaos they create – the nicest since fear of it began – seems to be their only aim.
Three Irrwischs turned yesterday the pedestrian precinct upside down. The group showed improvisation theatre of first-rate, they amazed with acrobatics, spontaneity and funny jokes.“ Neue Zeit
Wegenstreits Guests from Irrwisch belonged this year to the clear public favourite of the Festival!” Viathea Görlitz

NUJORK DENZING KWIIN – stilttheatre
Clownesque 70s stilt-danceTheatre

good vibes spread through town!
Coming straight from the disco scene of suburbia, a group of dancers and their DJ with his sound system take us along to a trip into town.
With their garishly colored outfits and cult movie quotes, our four disco dudes resemble comic strip heroes representatives from a weird and freaky world.
Watchers-on are drawn into the IMP’s spell, performed on stilts and ground, and soon all on the streets are tapping their feet and smiling as good vibrations spread through town until everybody’s dancing along…

GRANNIES – strettheatre
old ladies cause riots
|
The town needs more unworthy old women. And now they come! Better not mess with these old ladies. With typical wit and physical exertion, Irrwisch shows that pensioners could also make a riot.
The granny gang with their little hats and brollies steal from traders, provoke quarrels, scold children and use their umbrellas like weapons.
Even better than the old Monty Python concept: because this geriatric gang is real, they’re here and there’s going to be trouble.
Nobody and nothing could feel safe from their funny attacs, they „worked“ with full physical play and demonstrated in a spectacular manner: Even old age does not protect against foolishness. Täglicher Anzeiger
Between madness and slapstick comedy, poetry and imagination: Especially the renitent „Grannies“ blew up without mercy all boundaries of manners and mixed up the city. New Westfalian
