    Notes The so-called "Brecht-boycott" was an anti-Communist campaign in Austria against the author Bertold Brecht. As a result, from 1952 to 1963 no established theater in Vienna staged a play by Brecht. The main initiators of the Brecht-boycott were the director of the Burgtheater, Ernst Haeusserman, and the intellectuals Hans Weigel and Friedrich Torberg. The main literary source of the Brecht-boycott was the journal FORVM.
