An effervescent and sparkling confection, J. Strauss II’s beloved operetta waltzes into your heart with familiar melodies, witty repartee and delightful charm. Spend a riotous evening in the company of the cunning Dr. Falke as he plays a joke on his good friend Eisenstein. It’s just a little revenge for a night of carousing gone awry that ended in very public humiliation for Falke. As his scheme unfolds, subplots hilariously pile up, drawing everyone into the whirlwind of Falke’s dastardly plan. The chaos comically explodes at an extravagant masquerade ball hosted by a Russian prince. Deceptions and disguises among friends and lovers give way to affection, laughter, and — as any happy ending should — champagne for all! Join the fun at McAninch Arts Center — this supreme example of the Viennese operetta is sung in English.  Get discount tickets for the January 27th performance on Goldstar.
