Wolfgang Hartl and Erika Friedl from the Atelier Am Stein have taken another trip to the world of ASAGAN. Wolfgang collected old prints and books, wrote the stories and, together with Erika, designed the stage and the characters. Erika drew the characters and the two of them illustrated the book together. Marlies Kirchler gave them active support. The Atelier Am Stein is the creative space they share in Kirchberg am Wechsel where new and extraordinary things find time and space to come to life.
