The play begins at 2:00 P.M., and the lecture begins at about 4:00 or 4:15. Kling, whose major interests include Austrian literature, will talk about the eroticentanglements of the characters as marks of loneliness and missing self-identity; he will draw on research he conducted at the Austrian Theater Museum in Vienna during Decemer 2006 and January 2007.
