The "Krone" Heart Man Gala is over - now we present this year's winning clubs: Curtain up for 3rd place! 

The latest play by Fritzi's theater group in Spittal an der Drau is almost sold out. "Certainly also because the audience knows that we do theater for a good cause," says Corinna Golobic, vice chairwoman of the small association. "We mainly support children in need," says Elfriede "Fritzi" Golobic, who founded the theater group over 10 years ago.

"Thought we had no chance"
The association had Fritzi's sisters to thank for its nomination in the "Krone" Heart Man campaign: "We really didn't think we had a chance," as Fritzi initially feared. All the more reason for the small non-profit association to be delighted with the 2,000 euros in prize money and third place: "We'll use it to spend a nice evening as a group, buy new props and, of course, donate some of the money back."

"We simply enjoy theater, love being on stage - and if we can do something good at the same time, we've won twice over!", concludes the Spittal native. How true!
