Premiere of the funny widow in the theater tent Schwerin: a summer full of glamor!

The anticipation for the summer season is growing, because the Mecklenburg State Theater will present the premiere of the operetta classic "The Funny Widow" under the direction of Andrea Schwalbach on Friday, June 27, 2025. The performance location is the newly built theater tent at the kitchen garden in Schwerin. This staging promises to enchant the audience with an entertaining mix of romance, irony and glamor. As reports Schwerin-lokal.de, the story is about the rich widow Hanna Glawari, which is in the heart of Parisian games. Count Danilo is commissioned to win them out of true love, not only to keep their assets, but also the Principality of Pontevedro from bankruptcy.

The musical accompaniment of this humorous operetta takes over the Mecklenburg Staatskapelle Schwerin under the direction of Eric Staiger. Particularly noteworthy are the participants, which consist of the opera choir, soloist: inside the ensemble and the renowned Schwerin ballet. This combination will make the performance a holistic experience that will certainly be remembered. The staging comprises a total of eleven performances by August 3, 2025 before the theater goes into the summer break. Remaining tickets for the premiere and some other performances are still available.

a festival of music and dance

The "Funny Widow" is not considered one of the largest operetta hits since its premiere in 1905. Her melodies such as the "Vilja song" and "lips silence" have kept in the memory of the people. Mecklenburgisches-staatstheater.de makes it clear that the figure of Hanna represents a self-confident and strong woman who struggles in the middle of an intrigue game between social expectations and personal feelings. This gives the operetta a special depth, while the humor is not neglected.

It becomes particularly exciting when Count Danilo, Hanna's former lover, faces her challenges. Between the two, not only a game for wealth unfolds, but also about the well -known question of true love. Danilo is devoted to the difficult undertaking of showing Hanna that his feelings are real without ignoring her financial interests.
