A pilgrimage journey of images, sound, and stories in the Rochus Chapel
With My Neighbourhood, a multimedia theater and music performance will take place in Landshut on October 9, 2026, taking the audience on an extraordinary journey between Vienna, Jerusalem, and Cairo. Christian Stejskal combines photography, storytelling, and live violin performance into an intense stage experience about departure, faith, and life in Cairo's Garbage City.

Between pilgrimage path and urban poetry
The production follows a biographical trail that goes far beyond storytelling: Stejskal recounts his pilgrimage journey on foot from Vienna through Jerusalem to Ethiopia and connects it with his years in Cairo, where he documented the stories of the Zabaleen, the Christian garbage collectors. This results in a dense dramaturgy of memory, observation, and musical presence. ([christianstejskal.com](https://christianstejskal.com/about?utm_source=openai))
Photography, violin, and a strong theatrical atmosphere
On stage, projected photographs meet Arabic music and original compositions on the violin. This combination of image, sound, and narrative creates a concentrated theatrical atmosphere, relying more on inner movement than on external effects. The form is as personal as it is documentary, gaining its authority from this very aspect. ([christianstejskal.com](https://christianstejskal.com/about?utm_source=openai))
