[NEW] Johann Strauss’s uproarious comedy of errors, Die Fledermaus, comes to the Opéra Royal de Wallonie-Liège in a scintillating new production! Discover Anne-Catherine Gillet as Rosalinde in the aria "Csárdás - Klänge der Heimat", a clever wife who, disguised as a Hungarian countess, flirts with her own husband (Gabriel von Eisenstein) to expose his infidelity, ultimately revealing her true identity. Olivier Lepelletier-Leeds’s production relocates the action from fin-de-siècle Vienna to 1980s

Die Fledermaus is one of the greatest operetta masterpieces by The Waltz King, Johann Strauss II. This supreme piece of musical theatre exhilarates audiences with its beautiful waltzes and polkas, light, refined satire and humour. By the denouement, the venue is joyfully awash in song, dance and drama. This blithe, flamboyant work is well known as a staple of year-end/new-year Vienna. The production was directed by Heinz Zednik, a renowned tenor who also holds the title of Kammersänger of Vienna

Like corks popping at midnight, Johann Strauss’s Die Fledermaus sparkles in this 1987 live performance from the Bayerische Staatsoper, with Pamela Coburn, Eberhard Waechter, and a scene-stealing Brigitte Fassbaender as Orlofsky. Now streaming at stage.plus/NewYears. | STAGE
