Jura Soyfer (1912-1939) was an important Austrian political journalist and cabaret writer.
Jura Soyfer’s intent was not to present any complete solutions or conclusions: he believed that the problems he presented could only be solved in real life, in actual protest. His plays destroy illusions and call upon us to change society in its present form. He himself saw his own plays as a means for propaganda with a direct connection to the times in which he lived.
