Reviews

“[...] Two characters [meaning Liegl and Altinger ] who couldn't be more different meet here on stage and, with their love of improvisation and playfulness, spark a firework of linguistic and acting humor highlights. An evening that not only doubles the skills of both artists, but multiplies them. "

- Jury of the German Cabaret Prize 2007

“[...] Liegl's absurd-Dadaist cabaret piece became a long-running hit in its first edition by the Valtortas. The Munich premiere of the new production in the Oblomow suggests that this could happen again. [...] "This is no longer a theater, this is the boulevard!" Shouts Murrs Hans at one point in "Mörd!" Several times. If the boulevard looks like Liegl's cabaret version, then you can't repeat it often enough. "

- Süddeutsche Zeitung

“[...] Not only Matthias Kiefersauer but also Alexander Liegl (Gruppo die Valtorta, Occams, ...) is responsible for the congenial script. The two fantastic kids obviously had a lot of fun writing this rascal story, in which the rascals are mostly over 60. [...] It is particularly remarkable how the complexity of the individual villagers enriches the whole film without breaking it up. "
