On two Tuesdays, Jérôme Junod, the new quiz master of Wortwiege, invites you to take part in a knowledge test. He designs tricky questions of all kinds based on the themes of the festival. The more diverse the teams of up to 5 people are, the greater the chance of winning the prize at the end!
The combination of art and knowledge is a matter close to Wortwiege’s heart. With our new pub quiz format, the audience can put their own education to the test in a wide variety of areas. Drinks and snacks are provided by our catering partner Löwenherz. The team with the most comprehensive knowledge will go home with a prize.
As an invitation of a different kind, our two pub quiz evenings are a playful exploration of numerous topics raised by the 2026 festival: whether Central Asian geography, the chemistry of alcohol, pop culture references or recognizing Austrian politicians – with friends and family, a pub quiz evening promises the best entertainment and numerous aha moments with tricky questions and refreshing drinks. Knowledge is fun!

Jérôme Junod
Born in Lausanne in 1979, a trained pianist and philosopher, Jérôme Junod has been working as a director, playwright, translator, dramaturge and lecturer in German and French for twenty years. Starting in 2026, he is a director and scientific coordinator of Wortwiege. From 2021 to 2025, he was leading director and head dramaturge at the Schauspielhaus Salzburg, before and during which he taught for years at the Max Reinhardt Seminar, the Mozarteum Salzburg and the Manufacture – Haute École de Théâtre de Suisse Romande, among others, and directed in numerous theatres in Austria, Germany and Switzerland. In June 2026, his new play “The Ministry of Truth“ premiered at the Sommerspiele in Melk, where in 2022 “Nero – He only wanted to play“ was on show. Junod is currently developing a new course with Wortwiege at Danube University in Krems, in which dramatic storytelling is to be expanded and applied in dialog with non-theatrical fields such as game research, exhibition development, journalism, politics, psychology, cultural studies and management.
