André Haedicke, Christine Rothacker A true gem among operettas. In the varied play with role clichés, no eye remains dry. You haven't seen operetta like this before! Manon is the woman who knows what she wants and usually gets it. The operetta diva has a young admirer, Raoul. He, in turn, is in love with the young Lucy and asks Manon to give up the coveted bachelor for her, not knowing that Manon is her mother. And suddenly, we are in the middle of the wild confusion carousel of this charming operetta comedy, full of irony and frivolity, witty and clever dialogues. Oscar Straus’ score offers everything a hit operetta should: familiar music to sway to, waltzes, and chansons that touch the heart. Experience Oscar Straus’ jazz operetta, fast-paced and absurd, arranged for two performers and a piano.
