"Alfred Neugebauer, already on stage an apparition of inimitable peculiarity (he once described himself in a coquettish understatement as the most important 'kiss-the-hand' teller in German theater), was completely a lonely original as a storyteller, it was before especially through his incredible mastery of all dialects, accents and tones that existed in the area of ​​the former Habsburg monarchy. "
