Operette in drei Akten von Franz LehárAb dem 23. Oktober 2021 am Theater TrierMusikalische Leitung: Wouter Padberg Inszenierung: Manfred Langner Bühne & Kost...

Um den drohenden Bankrott abzuwenden, plant der Pariser Botschafter Baron Zeta, seinen Sekretär Danilo mit der steinreichen Witwe Hanna Glawari zu verheiraten. Doch die lebenslustige junge Witwe ist klug genug, sich die geldgierigen Verehrer vom Leibe zu halten. Mit dem Welterfolg der Lustigen Witwe von Franz Lehár schlug 1905 die Geburtsstunde der modernen Operette.

Nederlands

Pontevedrino - once the richest state in Europe - is broke. To avert the threat of bankruptcy, Parisian ambassador Baron Zeta plans to marry off his secretary Danilo to the filthy rich widow Hanna Glawari, but the fun-loving young widow knows how to keep her money-hungry suitors at bay. The worldwide success of The Merry Widow in 1905 marked the birth of the modern operetta, also known as "silvery" or "romantic," following in the footsteps of Offenbach and Strauss. With its dazzling new orchestration and modern portrayal of love, the work became the model for an entire era, never to be equaled again.
