Die Fledermaus, the most popular operetta penned by Johann
Strauss II and the first to be staged by the Greek National Opera back
in 1940, returns in a new production. A light-hearted piece with plenty
of humour and plot twists, it is defined by the majestic music of royal
Vienna. The GNOs new production will again be performed in Greek, but
this time with a new translation of both the prose and the lyrics by
Dimitris Dimopoulos. Alexandros Efklidis, who has produced several
successful operetta revivals already, transports the action to the
Athens bourgeoisie of the 1960s, where Strauss heroes meet with surprise guests at Prince Orlofskys wild party.
