The Bat by Strauss II, ned. 26 mar. 2023, Od (2022/2023), Režija: Isabella Gregor,, Dirigent Michael Falk, Theater Hof, Hof, Germany

You pretend. They're hiding. They play each other off. The reindeer Gabriel von Eisenstein, who has to go behind bars for eight days for insulting his office, but still wants to have fun with his chambermaid the night before. His wife Rosalinde, who sees him off to prison with a supposedly heavy heart, but melts away just hearing the singing teacher Alfred. The maid Adele, who is not at a loss for a lie. The notary Dr. Falcon, who doesn't like to be made fun of, and plots sweet revenge... A frivolous game of mistakes and intrigues par excellence! Everyone pretends to be someone else and wants to escape the narrowness and rigidity of Viennese society. And in the end it was all the champagne's fault. "Die Fledermaus" is the queen of operettas. In 1874, between champagne bliss and Viennese humor, Johann Strauss created one of the most popular works of entertaining music theater with lively music and unique comedy. A commentary on the Vienna stock market crash of 1873 and the problems that accompanied it. Follow Gabriel von Eisenstein and his wife Rosalinde to the big ball at Prince Orlofsky's!
