Vienna – "I am a light-hearted creature, a child with a thousand whims": this is how the allegorical title character introduces herself in Ferdinand Raimund's magical play "Die gefesselte Phantasie" (The Bound Imagination). The Raimundspiele Gutenstein theater company has put the play on its summer program. The production was presented at a press conference in Vienna on Wednesday. Ernst Wolfram Marboe, artistic director and director of the Raimundspiele, promised a production in keeping with previous tradition: "We are building on positive experiences." The witty motto for the next season: "Broad and clever – Raimundzeit!" The acting ensemble consists mainly of performers from previous years. It was emphasized that the bare-breasted lady on the cover of the brochure is not the leading actress Rita Nikodim.
