Die Fledermaus

The rousing operetta of all-time performed by drama actors. 

The exclusive parties, masquerades, parlor intrigues – and delinquency, trespasses, marital betrayals at the same time. The maids aspire to movie-star career while eccentric millionaires go to the prison as they would go to the ball. This is how they party in Warsaw!


Please mind that cigarette smoke appears in some scenes during the show.
