Description

Johann Strauss’ (son’s) popular operetta Die Fledermaus is presented in a unique marionette theater production by the Salzburg Marionette Theatre. The plot follows Gabriel von Eisenstein, who is due to serve a prison sentence but first attends a ball at Prince Orlofsky’s. His friend Dr. Falke seizes the opportunity to take revenge for an earlier prank—with the help of Eisenstein’s wife Rosalinde and her maid Adele.

The performance is distinguished by delicate marionettes and elaborate stage sets, crafted in the workshops of the Salzburg Marionette Theatre. Accompanied by the Vienna State Opera Chorus and the Vienna Philharmonic under the direction of Clemens Krauss, the production offers a blend of musical elegance and theatrical charm. Explanations in English, French, and Spanish make the piece accessible to international audiences.
