Overview
Travelguide
What could be more suitable than getting to know the Lehár town of Bad Ischl within the scope of an operetta performance. In 2010 "The Gypsy Princess" and "The Merry Farmer ” are staged. (17th july to 5th september 2010)
THE GYPSY PRINCESS - FIRST NIGHT: July 17th, 2010
Operetta in three acts by Emmerich Kálmán, words by Leo Stein and Bela Jenbach
The chanteuse Sylva Varescu is about to leave Budapest for a big tour through the States. She is madly in love with the aristocrat Edwin, the son of the Prince of Lippert Weylersheim, who is embarrassed about his son`s attraction to a lady who is not of a noble family. He sends Edwin a note in which he announces his son’s engagement to the young countess Stasi. Although recently married to Edwin Sylva now suspects that Edwin has betrayed her and leaves him without saying a word. Back in Vienna disguised as Count Boni’s wife Sylva attends a party at which Edwin’s engagement to Stasi is officially announced. As Edwin and Sylva see each other again their love grows with inflamed new passion. As it turns out theirs is not the only socially inacceptable relationship in the Lippert Weylersheim family... Hits like “Joj Maman, Bruderherz, ich kauf mir die Welt...” has made this Kálmán classic an evergreen of the operetta repertoire.
THE MERRY FARMER - FIRST NIGHT: July 24th, 2010
Operetta in two acts and a prologue by Leo Fall, words by Victor Léon
Matthäus Scheichelroither´s son Stefan is able to study medicine in Vienna due to the financial support of the rich farmer Lindoberer. When he returns to his village in Upper Austria he has changed: He would like to marry Friederike, the daughter of Grumow, a wealthy man from Berlin. Stefan´s sister Annamirl also believes that her boyfriend Vinzenz, Lindoberer´s son, is no longer good enough for her. Back in Vienna where Stefan lives and works, his relatives appear unexpectedly. Stefan is embarrassed. Despite of the condescending attitude of Friederike´s parents Stefan’s wife totally defends her husband and his background. Finally both families unite in a happy ending since “everyone must carry his own load”. Fall beautifully integrated rural music in his operetta.
