„Victoria and her Hussar”, an operetta in three acts by Paul Abraham, with a libretto by Alfred Grünwald and Fritz Löhner-Beda, depicts the love story between the beautiful Victoria and the hussar Koltay. The performance highlights the dramas of World War I, with intrigues and romances, all set in the art-deco decor of the early 20th century.
The subject of the operetta and the idyll of the two take us, one by one, from the sunny scenery of Japan, to picturesque St. Petersburg, eventually reaching a small town in Hungary. World War I and the years that followed put their love to great tests.
Victoria, believing her beloved dead in the war, marries a distinguished American diplomat named John Cunlight. However, life brings Victoria face to face with Koltay, her first love…
“The audience will enjoy a beautiful show, both for the eyes and the ears, set to the music of Paul Abraham, which gives the performance a different acoustic character. It is a balance between comedy, drama, dance, music, and theater, which will induce a sense of well-being. Moreover, the play takes us through three different geographical areas, each with its own theme, visibly both in the sets, as well as in music and the relationship between the characters” – Cătălin Voineag – director of the performance.
Duration of the performance: 2h and 30'
