So Telfs. Even the Railjet stops here, in the middle of the Inn Valley. Sometimes. When you get off and the train continues, you stand very alone on a very new platform and look at a corn field. Somewhere beyond that is the river, and beyond the river is the village, whose peculiar contribution to theatrical history can hardly be overestimated. The Tyrolean folk drama was not created in Telfs at all, but in 1981 at Hasegg Castle in Hall. From people who worked on the concept of popular theater, who wanted to air it, people like Dietmar Schönherr, Kurt Weinzierl, Ruth Drexel or Otto Grünmandl. As a result, pieces by Herbert Achternbusch or by Georg Ringsgwandl, Moritz Rinke, Händl Klaus, Bertolt Brecht and Roland Schimmelpfennig were played here in Tyrol, with a Nestroy in between and Felix Mitterer again and again. This year: “7 Deadly Sins”, a collective work.
