In the organizer's words:

Curtain up for: Dagmar Manzel and Max Hopp! She plays: Manon Cavallini, operetta diva, her suitor Raoul Severac, and the father of Lucy, her daughter - he plays: that very Lucy as well as all five of the Cavallini's lovers and Lucy's house friend to boot! In all the other roles: Dagmar Manzel and Max Hopp! A breathless tour de force, in which the orchestra under Adam Benzwi heats things up with a firework display of marches, waltzes and chansons from the pen of Oscar Straus.

Glamor queen Manon Cavallini is an operetta diva idolized by all men. Raoul Severac has also fallen for her - much to the displeasure of young Lucy, who has fallen head over heels in love with the handsome bachelor. She therefore asks the stage star to give up Raoul and leave him to her. What she doesn't know is that Manon is her mother ...

Oscar Straus, one of the most successful operetta composers of the 1920s and 30s, created a masterpiece with Eine Frau, die weiß, was sie will! With its wild mixture of waltz and foxtrot, it embodies the operetta style of the Weimar Republic. With hits such as "Warum soll eine Frau kein Verhältnis haben" and "Jede Frau hat irgendeine Sehnsucht", Straus cheekily overturned the role clichés that had prevailed until then.
