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.
