From popular theatre to Vietnam. With his very personal travelogue, theatre-maker Michael Schottenberg presents himself in his new role as a globetrotter. With nothing but a 40-litre rucksack, the story collector, maverick and philosopher sets off for the land of "Uncle Ho".

Along the way, he encounters "bridal couples who bump into the sky", is taken in by a gecko and gets carried away by the hustle and bustle of the night market in Hanoi. He has many unusual encounters and describes them all with his characteristic humour. Whether over a hearty Pho soup, in the "moped motel" or in the water puppet theatre: "Schotti" gains insights and impressions of the everyday life of people in Vietnam. Many things also remind him of the past, and then he thinks back - to key moments in his theatre career.reathe, and hoped that neither of these functions was vital to his driving or they were in trouble.

‘Vienna is Orient and Occident, cosiness and perfidy, a melange of sky-high exultation and deathly sadness.’ Travel philosopher Michael Schottenberg has a special relationship with the city in whose dimly lit post-war alleyways he once saw the light of day.

With loving affection and yet a critical eye, he encounters old-established originals, hidden cemeteries and markets as well as moving places of remembrance alongside Viennese Grant and Heurigen happiness ... ‘Vienna for Explorers’ is a globetrotter's declaration of love for his home city: a kaleidoscope of human encounters, personal snapshots and surprising discoveries.
