Oh yes, love – a grateful topic for the committed production team around director Nick Westbrock, who, together with music dramaturge Anne Christine Oppermann, has put together excerpts from famous operettas by Lehár, Kálmán, Millöcker, Strauss and other composers into a dramaturgically coherent and corona-compliant production . Comedy for the eyes and ears The connecting element is Maxim from Franz Lehár’s operetta “The Merry Widow”. The operator of an establishment with relaxed morality also fulfills unconventional love wishes and lets you forget your duty and everyday life for a moment. If he does not appear in the flesh and blood of Lehár, he experiences a kind of reincarnation with Nick Westbrock. Here Maxim is a cupid-like, androgynous being who brings lovers together or divides them and guides the protagonists of the evening from one love affair to the next.
