The Fire Raisers

Maybe if we’re nice to them, they won’t burn our house down... The Hidden Room returns after a five year hiaturs to bring you Max Frisch’s explosive absurdist comedy about the dangers of polite complicity, as told by through a Greek chorus of firefighters, a heavyweight wrestler, a headwaiter, a millionaire, and a trip to Hell. A string of devastating fires has plagued Gottlieb and Babette Biedermann’s hometown, and it’s always the same story. A harmless peddler asks for a room for the night, and by morning the house is ashes. And yet, when the knock at the Biedermanns’ door comes, and a menacing stranger asks for a room, it’s just so hard to turn him away. Starring Joseph Garlock, Kelly Hasandras, Chandler Krison, Robert Matney, T. Lynn Mikeska, Tobie Minor, Justin Scalise, and Amelia Turner, with live music performed by Michael Ferstenfeld. Three weekends only, April 2 – 19, 2026. All shows at 8 PM except Sundays at 5 PM. Running time: 110 minutes with one intermission. In a Hidden Room somewhere within 311 W 7th Street, Austin, Texas, 78701. Running time is 110 minutes with one intermission.
