DIE LUSTIGE WITWE
In the organizer's words:
OPERETTE
Music by Franz Lehár
Libretto by Victor Léon and Leo Stein
Based on the comedy "LʼAttaché dʼambassade" by Henri Meilhac, translated as "Der Gesandtschafts-Attaché" by Alexander Bergen
In order to reorganize the cash-strapped state of Pontevedro, which has fallen into financial difficulties, the Pontevedrian envoy Baron Zeta organizes a lavish party in Paris with the ulterior motive of saving the last private financial reserves for the fatherland. The only way to avert the threat of national bankruptcy seems to be to marry the millionaire Pontevedrian widow Hanna Glawari to a fellow countryman. With the premiere of Franz Lehár's "The Merry Widow" on December 30, 1905, the era of the "silver operetta" reached its zenith. The work is still one of the most popular pieces of the genre today.
