Romeo Kaltenbrunner - Heimweh - Orpheum Wien - 2027
Romeo has to go home, from Vienna to Upper Austria. His grandmother is dying. Again. For Romeo, the trip to his hometown is also a journey back in time to his own childhood and youth. He reunites with his old childhood sweetheart, whom he unfortunately wasn’t allowed to kiss back in school. Her family had forbidden it. Partly because Romeo had the wrong skin color. But mainly because he didn’t have enough hectares (note: zero).

Info
Romeo attends a tent festival back in his home village, where the same band is still playing as 15 years ago, and where the same Nazis as 15 years ago still want to beat him up. It’s wonderful when some things in life just stay the same.
Surrounded by the smell of grilled chicken and slightly tipsy from an entire box of Jägermeister, Romeo gets nostalgic. Should he not go back to Vienna after all, where people are more liberal—but, unfortunately, also more bland? Isn’t this village his true home after all? What is “home” anyway? Can you be proud of your homeland if you don’t even know your own father?
In his second cabaret show, “HEIMWEH,” Romeo Kaltenbrunner talks about growing up in the countryside and what it’s like to look more foreign than your last name and dialect would suggest.
