Der Professor und der Wolf

Die Bühne im Hof visits the Festspielhaus St. Pölten: Der Professor und der Wolf (‘The Professor and the Wolf’) – an evening with Peter Filzmaier and Armin Wolf! When the political scientist meets the journalist, information meets verbal wit. An entertaining glimpse behind the scenes of Austrian politics!

Armin Wolf is older than Peter Filzmaier – yet he studied under him and spotted him in the lecture theatre for television. On stage, the two sometimes talk about sport, often about how they have got to know each other better over the years, and always about what is currently happening in Austrian politics. The whole thing is fast-paced, well-informed, critical and – thanks to the two men, who get on brilliantly – also incredibly entertaining.

Peter Filzmaier is a professor of political science, head of the Institute for Strategic Analysis and a political analyst for ORF. As a bestselling author and multi-award-winning commentator, he is known for his well-founded political analyses. Armin Wolf is deputy editor-in-chief of ORF television and has been presenting ZIB 2 since 2002. The two also appear together on the FM4 podcast Der Professor und der Wolf.
