Commissioned as part of the 2009 Capital of Culture programme in LINZ ,SCHÄXPIR, NIE and Sgaramusch have created Das Schiff, a site specific show on board the historical Danube steamship Schönbrunn. The show premiered in March 2009 and was also performed as part of the SCHÄXPIR festival from the 30 June - 5 July 2009.
The old ship lies at anchor directly below the Nibelungen Bridge in Linz. The paddlewheels are standing still, the chimney does not give off any clouds of smoke and usually there are no passengers on the deck. But if you approach close enough, you can hear it creaking, grating and grinding. They are still alive on the MS Schönbrunn, all the old stories of passengers, sailors, empresses and captains. Hidden in the corners of the cabins, engine rooms and in the ship’s galley.
Pupils from Austria (Linz),Norway (Asker) and Zurich (Switzerland) have taken pencil and paper and written down their most thrilling, touching and fantastic ship adventures.The international theatre ensembles Sgaramusch and NIE have staged some selected stories on the Schönbrunn. Ship ahoy!
