Philipp Hochmair is Jedermann. In a passionate tour de force, he slips into all the roles and turns Hugo von Hofmannsthal's play into a polyphonic monologue. His Jedermann is a rock star. Driven by guitar riffs and experimental sounds from the band Die Elektrohand Gottes, Hochmair transforms the 100-year-old mystery play into an apocalyptic spoken word concert. Everyone becomes recognizable as a contemporary who is burning up in his insatiable greed for money and intoxication. The theme is timeless and at the same time eternally valid: 'What's left of my life when it comes to dying?
Philipp Hochmair began his Jedermann experiment in 2013 and has been developing the performance as a work in progress ever since. After 5 years of touring, the studio album "Jedermann Reloaded" is a further step in this experiment. The gaze turns inwards, the journey leads into Jedermann's head.
