After his ascent to Vienna in 1921, he caused protest rally and performances stopped. Schnitzler, after being  threatened for his life, withdrew his work and banned his theatrical promotion for 25 years.

The rise of Nazism in power led the work to the disaster, as they burned every single copies that were found. Today, the work is now in the classical repertoire, counting over a century of life and a variety of theater productions.
