WRITER IN RESIDENCE
The writer, journalist, translator and publisher Ilija Trojanow is an enthusiastic opera fan and regular visitor to the MusikTheater an der Wien. An encounter with artistic director Stefan Herheim gave rise to the joint idea of accompanying the work of an opera house for a year as writer in residence. As a curious observer of rehearsal processes, an outside observer of theatre operations and, last but not least, a literary commentator on topics that will occupy the MusikTheater an der Wien in the 2025/26 season, Ilija Trojanow will be speaking out repeatedly in various formats.
