La Strada 2025
Kreátures > Circus Art < Street theater for young audiences
Cie Le Chat Fou I France
On Tuesday, July 29th, 2025 from 5 p.m., La Strada will once again perform on the “Glockenwiese” at Seggau Castle.
With their production Kreátures, the company invites you into a poetic fable that explores questions about relationship with living beings.
Imaginative street theatre for children aged 4 and up
Kreátures is a whimsical piece of street theatre told in the style of a silent film, exploring the protagonist Aristide´s deep passion for animals. In a fictional world where flora and fauna have vanished from Earth, Aristide clings to childhood memories of a time when the world teemed with life, movement, and sounds – on land, in the water and in the air.
From the fragments of these memories and a collection of found objects and materials, he creates a bestiary, a cabinet of curiosities, which he presents to the audience as a series of small attractions.
These are based on circus and puppetry techniques and evoke the charm of old fairground performances. The show moves between realism, fantasy, and imagination, while also offering a glimpse into a changing environment that may gives rise to new, mutated species.
When: Tuesday, July 29th, 2025, 5 p.m.
Where: “Glockenwiese” at Seggau Castle
Duration: 40 minutes

Eight chellists W. Symphoniker
“Im Fluss”
Sunday, June 22nd, 2025 from 11:00 a.m.
at the Epsicopal Wine Callar Seggau Castle
Enjoy an extraordinary concert experience in the historic wine cellar of Seggau Castle. The 8 cellists of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra invite you to a sonic adventure that you should not miss. Founded in 1980, the ensemble has premiered numerous works by renowned Austrian composers and delighted audiences in over 100 concerts in Austria and abroad. After a break, the group returned in 2005 with mostly new members and has been setting musical standards ever since.
Musical diversity and a unique sound space
Eight cellos on stage – that promises a concert of a special kind. This unique instrumentation makes it possible to explore a wide range of sound colours: from the radiant brilliance of the soprano to the powerful bass foundation. What is particularly impressive is how the ensemble uses the specific instrumentation to reveal hidden dimensions of supposedly well-known works. The faithful arrangements do not create any new sounds, but merely reduce doublings and adjust octave ranges.
An intimate chamber music experience
The homogeneous line-up of eight similar instruments opens up completely new listening perspectives for the audience. The solo interpretation of each individual voice lends the concert a profound, very personal chamber music intimacy. The impressive ‘cinemascope arrangement’ of the musicians challenges all the senses – you will need both ears!
Immerse yourself in a world full of harmonic depth and experience the 8 cellists of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra in the unique atmosphere of Seggau Castle in southern Styria.
The castle tavern at Seggau Castle will spoil you with culinary delights.
