The Three Towns present 'Die Fledermaus' - A Musical Comedy
In glittering Vienna Prince Orlofsky's Ball is the scene of a hilarious story of romance, intrigue, disguise and mistaken identity set to the sparkling romantic melodies of Johann Strauss.
All of Viennese high society is going to Prince Orlofsky’s Ball. They just don’t want each other to know this. Eisenstein should be going to prison so he’s keeping a low profile. For obvious reasons his wife and her lover Alfred are also keen to conceal their identities. Their maid Adele should be tending to her sick aunt, not partying.
Eisenstein’s best friend Falke is plotting revenge on him for pushing him into a fountain
costumed as a bat and abandoning him, exposing him to ridicule. By the end of the night all masks will be lifted, identities will be known and truths will be revealed.
Music by Johann Strauss II. Adaptation by Phil Park and Ronald Hanmer.
