"Includes the plays Italian Night and Tales from the Vienna Woods
Written in 1930s Europe, these plays describe the decay of a
society haunted by inflation and succumbing to a rising tide of
fascism. In Hampton's translation of Tales from the Vienna Woods
(staged at the RNT in 1977) von Horvath portrays, with compassion
and impartiality, the interplay between individual selfishness and
the pressures of a society in crisis. Italian Night, in this new
translation by Meredith Oakes, has a group of friends deciding to
hold a republican 'Italian Night', only to discover the fascists
have chosen the same day for a German Day parade."
