Schwab, who was considered the enfant terrible of the literary scene in Graz in the 1990s, contributed to the breakthrough at the Münchner Kammerspiele Munich in 1991. The mother and son live in a poor hole where they drown their lives. Thus, Herrmann, called to the artist and severely abused in his childhood, fantasized about the murderous fantasies of his mother.
His neighbors are the employee Mr. Kovacic, "two generations of German Austrians", with his wife and daughters whose family idyll is made of "new macabre furniture", eggnog and paternal lamentations of his daughters as it says in the announcement text of the Burgtheater. Together, they go to Mrs. Grollfeuer's birthday party, where the "destruction of the people" is eloquent.
On Jakob Brossmann's stage, Habjan and Manuela Linshalm lead the disabled Herrmann Wurm doll, through the destroyed building, Dorothee Hartinger in the role of her mother, Barbara Petritsch in the role of Frau Grollfeuer and Sarah Viktoria Frick and Alexandra Henkel.
The Burgtheater sums up thus: "Schwab's" Fecal Drama ", to which his" radical comedy "includes the extermination of the people, are ugly portraits of ugly people who badert themselves in a sewer of hatred, violence , of meanness and vulgarity by means of the language that they produce, they are themselves.
