Previous conditions - From now on, it went downhill.

The wealthy timber merchant Scheitermann and his wife Josephine are looking for new servants. Peppi Amsel, who has already worked for Josephine's father, is quickly hired. The second applicant, Anton Muffl, knows a dark secret — Scheitermann's former circumstances are less glamorous than he pretends. Nestroy exposes the double standards of his characters, who hide their past to appear better in the social fabric. The musical intertwining with Knef songs underscores the contrast between appearance and reality – social etiquette meets honest emotion. After the rise, a fall threatens: from now on, it was downhill!
