The historic 1919 election started the Red Vienna era, in which aesthetics and politics were progressive, psycho-analytic, prurient, and slippery at the same time. Red revues and staged propaganda extravaganzas stood opposite bourgeois scandals such as Anita Berber’s Tänze des Lasters, appearances of Josephine Baker and Arthur Schnitzler’s Round Dance. Filming of the gigantic silent movie Sodom and Gomorrha took place at Laaer Berg with more than 15,000 extras, combining stories from the Bible with the hedonistic reality of the 1920s. The players of Sodom Vienna will revive this time in a colourful show, as if saying: Vienna, you red Sodom, your colour stands for love and revolution, and Sodom is the city of sin, defying conventions full of lust!
