Elisabeth!

Saturday 26 September · 20:00Burgtheater · wien

What's it about?

Elisabeth enters the stage. She is Empress of Austria, Queen of Hungary, an ideal of beauty, wife, mother, athlete – and has been dead for over 100 years. How does she herself look back on her life in the spotlight of the 19th century? On her afterlife as an icon in dozens of films and series. Sisi's face adorns sweets and souvenirs, she is Austria's showpiece, the darling of a nation. At the same time, she is called a bad mother, anorexic, vain and selfish. Who is the woman behind all the images and stories? The young director Fritzi Wartenberg stages Mareike Fallwickl's monologue ELISABETH! and casts a multi-layered and feminist gaze on the Habsburg superstar. The dress for ELISABETH was financed with the support of the Society of Friends of the Burgtheater. Director: Fritzi Wartenberg Stage design: Jessica Rockstroh Costumes: Leonie Falke Music: Lilian Kaufmann, Elena Ulrich Lighting: Roman Sobotka Dramaturgy: Christina Schlögl Cast: Stefanie Reinsperger
