The bat

To take revenge on his friend and bon vivant von Eisenstein for a past embarrassment, notary Dr. Falke, who wanders the streets in the morning after a night at the ball, drunk and dressed as a "bat", stages an elaborate disguise game at one of the legendary parties of the unapproachable Prince Orlofsky. Here, everyone can be whoever they want: single or married, noble or exotic. But watch out! Disguised with masks and false names, every counterpart can turn out to be a surprise... and in the end you blame it on the champagne. This stage classic offers much more than just "light muse" and fits in perfectly with our times. Popular melodies such as "Glücklich ist, wer vergisst, was doch nicht zu ändern ist", "Spiel ich die Unschuld vom Lande" and Rosalinde's Csárdás, as well as the waltz in Act 2, make "Die Fledermaus" an unforgettable experience. Act 2 waltz make "Die Fledermaus", a cheerfully ironic social satire with a firework display of melodies, the most famous of all operettas

This event is accompanied by a free introduction to the play by Linda Keil and Lasse Schulte.
Begins at 7.15 pm in the auditorium.
