MSU Opera Theatre - Die Fledermaus | 11.18.2018

Step back in time to Vienna with its frothy and frolicking delights of the Gilded Age as MSU Opera Theatre presents Johann Strauss' Die Fledermaus. Strauss’ timeless melodies soar through this comedic tale of a philandering husband, a clever wife and oodles of champagne!
Generously sponsored by Dr. James M. Miller and Dr. Rebecca H. Lehto. The Opera Theatre season is generously funded by the Worthington Family Foundation.

I think this year this is the version I'm watching. It is not New Year's Eve without it. Once upon a time I sang in the chorus of a performance by the West Virginia Opera Theater - so it is great that this is an English version.

Omg, when Adele came in singing “When I am Laid in Earth” I almost died laughing

I just found this site and subscribed because as a young man I saw some really good theatre and opera at Cal State Long Beach, Cal State Northridge, and Cal State Fullerton.

Wow I played the title role in 1993 at MSU (Midwestern State University) it's so wild to see this

For me as an Austrian this is very funny to hear in English.

Same

[@ardeladimwit]

also awful, but then again My Fair Lady in German at Volsoper was awesome as they totally understood the use of dialect and thought it better than film version with Hepburn.

Strauss is the all-time genius of Waltzes; "The Waltz King". But he composed brilliantly in other genres, include this delightful opera. And as for doing "Strauss in English"...punctuation is a good thing.

It is a constant competition in nazism and racism in portraiting prince Orlovsky.

Snob

[@amaterasu419]

In English, why not, but the scenery looks very boring, too minimalistic......The protagonists should according to the script appear much more attractive and charming. One can hardly imagine Eisenstein as a ladies man. .......

[@eponawarrior7492]

It's a student production, have some decorum. At the very least don't make cheap shots at their looks. Shame on you!
