Die Fledermaus

"Champagne is in debt, tralalalala" - after a long night of confusion and erotic slip-up, the protagonists in Johann Strauss's FLEDERMAUS finally agree. But guilt is not only the alcohol, but confusion mainly causes the intrigue of the humiliated Dr.. Hawk, who was once exposed in a bat costume to the ridicule of small town society and now takes his chance to avenge his 'good friend', the bon vivant Gabriel von Eisenstein. And so the chambermaid as an actress, the wife as a Hungarian countess and Eisenstein himself as a French marquis masked and sent to the ball of Prince Orlofsky. That it follows only Katzenjammer in the early morning in prison, is then less on champagne than in the nature of things. Johann Strauss succeeded with his FLEDERMAUS the prototype of the Viennese operetta - roller-cheeked, polka-eating and full of bitter irony. Inspired by Offenbach's Opéras bouffes from Paris, the bourgeois salon audience was relentlessly held up to the mirror - and many a spectator recognized himself on stage in the abstruse tree-dodge game.
