In the white horse

"When it really rains here, it rains ..." Where exactly? Of course: at Lake Wolfgangsee in the Salzkammergut, where the bustling landlady Josepha runs an illustrious hotel guesthouse. In high season, the world meets here: factory owners from Berlin, beautiful Sigismanders, smart daughters from good families - and even the old Emperor Franz Joseph is said to have been spotted. It goes without saying that a few love affairs go back and forth among the colorful crowd. But by the time all the couples have sorted themselves out according to their whims and even the waiter Leopold can be happy about his dismissal, a lot drunter and drÃover. As in any good operetta, there's only one thing to do: bring on the bubbly!

The Austrian singer, actress and director Ruth Brauer-Kvam makes her directorial debut at the Tiroler Landestheater with Ralph Benatzky's successful operetta from 1930 and has a brilliant ensemble of holiday-happy hotel guests dancing across the stage with plenty of imagination, verve and a good dose of humor. Whether waltz, love song or polka, at best it's ladies' choice!
