Since 1920, "Jedermann," "The Play of the Rich Man's Death" by Hugo von Hofmannsthal, has been performed at the Salzburg Festival in front of the mighty Salzburg Cathedral. In 2013, Julian Crouch and Brian Mertes, as the directing team, took on the challenge of staging a new production. "We will begin ceremoniously with a procession from the Festspielhaus to the Cathedral Square, working with nature, the elements, the city, each other – but above all with the audience – to tell the story of 'Everyman,' his life's journey and transformation. His life must be rich, joyful, and overflowing – also for the audience. On the path to his conversion, he encounters a number of very powerful theatrical characters. We want – like a medieval theater troupe – to captivate our audience with spectacle and humor, to sweep them away, and invite them to follow Everyman's path and to understand it as their own – at least for the two-hour performance."

Stockinger is an Austrian-made police television drama, with fourteen 45-minute episodes first aired from 1996 to 1997.

Stockinger leaves the series to return to Salzburg where his wife has inherited a dental practice from her late father . He is appointed a Bezirksinspektor at the Landes Gendarmerie, sharing an office with District Inspector Antonella Simoni. Unlike the members of the team in 'Rex', who appear to be self-directed and are seldom seen to answer to senior management, Stockinger reports to Dr Brunner, a philosophising burecratic senior police inspector. Stockinger is portrayed as a clumsy, almost Inspector Clouseau-like character, driving a clapped-out 1973 VW Variant, but single-minded when following up clues.
