Johann Strauss was the most significant Viennese composer of easy-listening music of the 19th century. This “king of waltzes” is, besides other works, the author of a number of operettas, from among which alongside The Gypsy Baron it is Die Fledermaus – an ideal mixture of Viennese charm, humour and unbeatable zest for life – that belongs to the most successful ones.
Premiere: Dec 20, 1991
Running time: 2 hours 50 minutes with 2 intermissions
Performed in German with Czech and English captions.
Response in the press
“A performance with esprit and dynamism… A spectacular show in which the plot’s progress never falters.”
(Svobodné slovo, Praha, January 8, 1992)

The Prague State Opera – Theatre History in Pictures and Dates
The Prague State Opera in cooperation with the Slovart publishing house publishes a representative book tracking the history of this significant cultural institution since its opening in 1888 till the end of the 2002/2003 season. The publication called The Prague State Opera – Theatre History in Pictures and Dates is focusing solely on the opera featured at the scene, even though the theatre under various names also served to presentation of drama plays, operettas and ballet. The Prague State opera plans to publish the volumes concentrating on those genres in the next years.
