Approved

At the end of 1905, "The Merry Widow" celebrated its world premiere in the Theater an der Wien and thus began its triumphal procession around the world: performances in Hamburg and Berlin, in London and on Broadway soon followed. "The Merry Widow" is one of the most performed operettas ever.

Hanna and Danilo became role models for the great Hollywood lovers, as they were excitingly new: Hanna Glawari as a modern woman, equipped with a cheeky mouth and a directness that in no way contradicts her elegance and cosmopolitanism; Danilo as a bon vivant who, after losing his great love, spends his days in Maxim without any prospects or tasks. Their game of luring and pushing away almost robs the two proud stubborn people of their good luck a second time.

“The Merry Widow” was first shown at the Volksoper on May 16, 1906 as a guest performance by the Theater an der Wien, and it has been a fixed part of the repertoire since 1953.
