A Night in Venice by Strauss II, Dl. 01 Ag. 1988, De (1988/1988), Dirigit per Robert Herzl, Director musical Uwe Theimer

Fiery evenings can be expected again at the Mörbischer Festspiele in summer, when the colorful hustle and bustle of carnival arrives with "One Night in Venice". The "comic operetta" by Johann Strauss will be staged by the artistic director of the lake festival, Robert Herzl. Uwe Theimer is responsible for the musical direction. The plot of the operetta in 3 acts, which premiered in 1883, revolves around the Duke of Urbino, a well-known womanizer, and his personal barber Caramello, who assists him in all amorous matters. But the women - including Caramello's bride Annina - also pursue their interests. And just as in the "Fledermaus" the blame for the confusion is attributed to champagne, so in Venice the carnival has to do the trick: "All masked, all masked, where fun, where madness and lust reigns!"
