THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS AN AUSTRIAN MOUNTAIN COW
‘This play has grown to be close to my heart. Doing a play about Covid-19 while the pandemic is still going on has been incredibly helpful because of all the restrictions we had to follow anyway. But it has also been a way to reflect over topics like isolation and struggling with mental health that so many people are dealing with during these times.’
— Director, Naima Sjoholm
Six people are stuck in quarantine in an Austrian
Skiing lodge due to exposure of a covid-19 case
at a party. The different views on how strict the
quarantine should be quickly leads to tension
between the characters.
How long can the human body stay sane without
the touch of others? What happens when you
are trapped in an environment with no way of
showing love and affection? How long until our
very humanity crumbles?
What starts off as a simple and harmless
disagreement turns into a series of bizarre
events including a dog, a radio and an
Austrian Mountain Cow.
