"At the White Horse Inn on Lake Wolfgangsee, happiness is at your doorstep" - in the popular inn, all kinds of different characters meet each other, all looking for happiness (in love): waiter Leopold loves his boss, the landlady of the "Rössl", Josepha Vogelhuber, but is constantly rejected because Josepha is interested in her regular guest Dr. Siedler. But he has his eye on the factory owner's daughter Ottilie, who in turn is to marry Sigismund, the son of her father's greatest competitor. Sigismund, however... in short: Lake Wolfgangsee is not just an Alpine Salzkammergut idyll, but also a tangle of love and competition. And then the emperor comes.

It is court day in Huisum. Village judge Adam, however, is badly injured. He says he "stumbled over himself" when he got up early in the morning. His official wig is also missing. It was given away for reworking, and caught fire on a candle - or did the cat have kittens in it during the night? While there is at least a grain of truth in Adam's report of the fall - which took place at night rather than early in the morning - as an "Adam's fall", the web of lies that the judge presents to explain his condition is becoming increasingly confusing.

The Broken Jug

"The beggars beg, the thieves steal, the whores whore. And the shark has teeth, and it wears them on its face..." Brecht's sharp-tongued travesty, in which the beggars and crooks act more bourgeois than good society, seems to have lost a few of its sharp teeth today, so natural has Brecht's critique of capitalism become to us. Here, crime is subject to the ice-cold laws of the market and love has a precisely calculated price. And so greed and profiteering are the determining principles that neither an old male friendship nor a tender romance can withstand. Doesn't that still sound familiar?
