Vereinigte Bühnen Wien News

After numerous streaming events, here is one we have all been waiting for since Covid-19 closed all our theatres.

A merry Christmas from the Vereinigte Bühnen Wien

We are in the middle of something, no one ever dreamed about. Theatres, Cafes, Restaurants, all closed, our social life swapped into the world of digital communications. But even in the darkest times, there is always a light. Musical Actors have done amazing things, like Rory Six and his Living Room Concerts.

HitSquad released the Live Recording from the Musical Mega Event of this year's summer, ELISABETH in CONCERT. An All-Star Cast lead by Pia Douwes, together with the amazing Orchestra of the Vereinigte Bühnen Wien, created a special night for an audience of 22000 people at the two night only event.

The Vereinigte Bühnen Wien got together to celebrate the traditional Season Opening at the summerstage, Oswald Schellmanns In-Location in the heart of the city. Artistic Director Christian Struppeck talked about the upcoming CATS Opening and and was looking forward to set a new record. Cast and Orchestra just finished the 'Sitzprobe'. AD Struppeck is really passionate, when he is talking about this production. Something really special to expect from the Vienna CATS. The hand-picked cast is a mix of well known artists and some fresh faces. A relaxing get together during the stressful rehearsals. It is less than 3 weeks until Opening Night.

You can put on a revival of a hit show. You can add or cut songs, costumes or scenes. Some might love it, others might moan about it and some even don't care about it.

Michael Kunze and Sylvester Levay's Elisabeth will play at Schloss Schonbrunn Ehrenhof July 5 and July 6, 2019.

Traveling to the most beautiful cities in Germany and Austria is always a good idea. There are many things to do, cultural highlights, historical places, great food and adorable people everywhere. Not to forget, the german speaking musical cosmos. Some of the shows are homemade, like ELISABETH, TANZ DER VAMPIRE (not the rotten Broadway version), I AM FROM AUSTRIA or MOZART ( all of them from the Vereinigte Buhnen Wien) and some are transferred from the Great White Way. Translating a show into the german language means a lot of work to keep the magic of the production as close to the original as possible.

Earlier today, Christian Struppeck announced his cast for the Open Air Concert of ELISABETH, the one Event you better not miss this summer. On july 5th and 6th, the famous historical setting provides a unique and dignified backdrop for the concert version of the musical, which tells the dramatic and moving story of the life, loves and tribulations of Empress Elisabeth of Austria

Many things to do in 2019, so much things to come. You better get ready, mark all the important dates in your calendar and make sure to book your tickets.
