In his new play, REICH DES TODES, Goetz describes 9/11 as the initial spark of a global social catastrophe the repercussions of which we cannot even begin to fully comprehend. As a scientist and a structure and numbers fanatic, Goetz’s writing is blunt and analytical, while retaining his typical breathlessness and humour. Robert Borgmann directs the Austrian premiere.
