Die Fledermaus
Die Fledermaus was part of The Grange Festival 2025 lineup, running from 20th June to 5th July.
Overview
Arguably the greatest operetta of all time, Die Fledermaus received the royal treatment with gorgeous 1920s designs, an all-star ensemble cast, and a witty English translation. This new production—sparkling with melody, mischief, and masquerade—was directed by Paul Curran and designed by Gary McCann, with lighting design by Johanna Town. Paul Daniel conducted the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.
Part of The Grange Festival 2025, this dazzling Die Fledermaus opera delivered an evening of elegance, humor, and unforgettable classical music in Hampshire.
