DER FREISCHÜTZ Comes To Burgtheater This Fall

DER FREISCHÜTZ, a romantic opera in three acts, is coming to the Burgtheater in September.

At the end of the Thirty Years' War, Max is an assistant forester and is set to become the head forester, however, he must first pass a test of skill in marksmanship. Cuno, the current head forester, has a daughter named Agathe, with whom Max is in love, and the winner of the contest will marry. The following day, Max takes up his gun and confidently fires his bullets at the targets. When the contest concludes, Max is flabbergasted to learn that the young peasant, Kilian, wins the contest and is proclaimed "King of Marksmen."

When Max shoots a magical eagle out of the sky, he is determined to win the contest and Agatha the next day.
