Josephine © Thomas Jelinek

In 1928 Josephine Baker performed in Vienna for the first time. 
  
Her show was a success and a scandal, a symbol for liberation and the  break-through as an individual, as a woman and as a representative of  the rassistically suppressed communities. 
  
At the same time Josephine Baker pierced right into the crusted,  morally, politically as well as socially defined power-barriers of the  society at that time.
