During a choir rehearsal, the Vienna Choir Boys embark on an imaginary tour of the World. Songs from Austria, Italy, Spain, England, Ireland, the United States of America, Brazil, Australia, China and South Africa spark off anecdotes, memories and tricks the boys play on each other.
German-Canadian director Gita Pattison’s fast and quirky staging showcases the boys’ individual talents; in addition to singing, they somersault, fence, have a shoot-out riding suitcases and do karate.
