Death Threats Force Heavy Security For Play’s Opening

“Police are to guard tonight’s Vienna premiere of a controversial stage comedy inspired by the saga of Josef Fritzl, the Austrian man who imprisoned and abused his daughter, after protests and appeals for it to be banned. Hubsi Kramar, the production’s director and star, has been forced to change its title from Pension Fritzl – a Cellar Soap to Pension F because of the outcry. Tickets for tonight’s opening have sold out.”
