Die Fledermaus Johann Strauss II

The Bat

Approved

On his way to prison for eight days, convicted of a civil offense, Eisenstein is convinced by his friend, Dr. Falke, to secretly attend a party, a costume ball, instead. Mistaken identities and romance ensue as his wife, her maid and even the warden of the prison all decide to join the party in outrageous disguises.

Set in Vienna in the late 19th Century and written by the “Waltz-King,” Johann Strauss II, Die Fledermaus (The Bat) is high spirited and charming, romantic and comic, filled with beautiful music and singing. It is based on a French vaudeville comedy and has spoken dialogue along with glorious singing. It is the most famous and beloved of all Viennese Operettas.

Opera Modesto’s production features Liisa Dávila as Rosalinda, Alicia Hurtado as her chambermaid, Gabriel Manro as her husband, Emmanuel Mercado as her ex-flame, and José Luis Muñoz as Prince Orlovsky, who holds the party where all the merriment takes place. Octavio Pérez-Bustamante sings the role of Falke, the prankster who arranges all the comic deception. It will be sung in the original German, with spoken dialogue in English, and supertitles in English.
