Summary:

"During World War 2, German Prisoners of War were confined in Australia at Camp 13 Murchison. A theatre group was established ...to present plays and concert performances and, at one time, Die Nibelungen, a traditional German legend by Hempel, was to be staged. A meeting was scheduled, supposedly for rehearsal and discussion, but the gathering took shape in a very different way due to illegal home-brewed alcohol being consumed. Adolf Wilke created this parody...describing the comical events of the evening..." --Introduction.
