"She is a glorious woman, she is a divine woman. I'm at a loss for words if I describe her any further."
At the outbreak of World War II, the young Jewish actress and singer Lola Blau emigrated from Vienna via Linz and Basel to the USA—and after an alcohol-fueled career as a show star, she returned to Vienna in dismay. Antisemitism is surprisingly unextinct here—despite everything...
What Georg Kreisler explores in his one-woman cult musical " Today Evening: Lola Blau" is reminiscent of his own career, the life he had lived up to that point. Kreisler thus transfers his own biography onto that of a fictional woman! In 1971, Kreisler's then-wife, Topsy Küppers, approached the darkly humorous, grumpy singer and asked for a solo performance.
