Viennese coffeehouse literature

Actor Jürgen Wegscheider invites you on a delightful journey into the world of Viennese coffeehouse literature – charming, witty, and full of spirit.



In his "literary melange," you'll encounter the great voices of the turn of the century: Peter Altenberg, Arthur Schnitzler, Hugo von Hofmannsthal, Karl Kraus, Franz Werfel, and many more. These authors were regulars at Viennese coffeehouses – places of thought, writing, and keen observation.

Wegscheider, himself a native Austrian, will transport you to this world with his refined sense of language and vivid prose, serving up literary gems: humorous, thoughtful, and timeless. An evening like a good cup of coffee – aromatic, stimulating, and with a lasting impression.
