Chris Lohner - Nein, ich will keinen Seniorenteller - CasaNova Vienna - Wien - 2027

CasaNova Vienna, Wien

When director and writer Uli Brée first came across Virginia Ironside’s book*No, I Don’t Want a Senior Meal*, he thought this story absolutely had to be brought to the stage. But it wasn’t until he met Chris Lohner that he found the perfect performer for it.

“No, I Don’t Want a Senior Meal” is essentially “Gut gegen Nordwind” for one person. It’s a humorous diary of a woman who, on the one hand, refuses to pretend she’s still twenty, but on the other hand, sees no reason to just wait for death. For her, her age is simply a reason to celebrate. And she lets us all share in that celebration.
Chris Lohner tackles this topic with captivating humor and her wonderfully positive outlook on life.

“No, I Don’t Want a Senior Meal”
An evening that makes you feel young.
A reading that inspires courage.
A hearty serving of life!
