DANS DER VAMPIEREN Forced To Delay Belgium Opening Until September 2010 Due To Goverment Grant Suspension
Dans der Vampieren, an adaptation of TANZ DER VAMPIRE which was to open in Belgium, has been delayed. Reports are that multiple production companies in Belgium oppose the show being given a €2.5 million government grant, and have asked for that support to be suspended. An investigation is now underway.
The production, which had planned on opening December 20th, will now be forced delay its opening until September 2010, at the earliest. The move leaves 150 workers unemployed in the interim.It was reported in December that, twelve years after the premiere and 10 years after its journey around the world that Jim Steinman, Michael Kunze & Roman Polanski's cult musical 'TANZ DER VAMPIRE' or as it is known in the US DANCE of the VAMPIRE would return to Vienna.At that time the musical was looking to return to Vienna in Autumn 2009 for a limited time after a tour stop in Ronacher. DANCE of the VAMPIRE had been playing the Metronom theatre in Oberhausen.
Reports indicated that while the show will return to Vienna, it won't be going back to the Raimund Theatre where it all started.
Other productions in 2009 of 'TANZ DER VAMPIRE' are scheduled for performance in Oberhausen and Tokyo.
A US adaptation of TANZ DER VAMPIRE opened on Broadway in 2002, it starred theatre superstar Michael Crawford and while not a box office success it gained a passionate fanbase and cult status after closing in January 2003.
