What's it about?

Artistic Director: Peter HofbauerDirector: Peter KratochvilMusical Director: Florian SchäferFrom July 3 to August 2, 2026, Johann Nestroy's magical farce Lumpazivagabundus will be rediscovered with forgotten musical treasures by the Viennese composer Carl Michael Ziehrer. Artistic Director Peter Hofbauer has created a new concept for the Schloss Weitra Festival with the revue operetta. It is the successful fusion of Austrian theatre classics with a first-class selection of Austrian entertainment music. This modern form combines the magic of music with the liberating joy of laughter and is thus completely up-to-date.The play is a farce about the dream of sudden wealth and the question of true happiness.Audience favourites such as Andy Lee Lang, Martin Muliar, Florian Stanek, Aris Sas, Tania Golden, Birgit Scheibenreif, Nazide Aylin, Michael Konicek, Nik Raspotnik and Laura Hat will be featured.Information: www.schloss-weitra.atTICKETS:Online: Online-Shop Ticket-Shop Ticket hotline: 0664/515 09 86, festival@schloss-weitra.at In person: Tourismus-Service or Schloss WeitraTickets available since August 2025 (...also as a voucher category!)- 15% early bird BONUS until January 31, 2026!Performance dates 2026:FRI, July 03, 2026, 7:30 PM - PremiereJuly 03 to August 02Friday 7:30 PMSaturday 3:00 PM & 7:30 PMSunday 4:00 PM(The weekend of July 17 - 19 is free of performances.)Prices:Category 1...€ 65,- Category 2...€ 55,- Category 3...€ 45,- Balcony box…€ 45,-
