Aschenbrödels Traum

Music: Martina Eisenreich
Book & Lyrics: Axel Ranisch
Inspired by: The music of Johann Strauss II
Genre: Fairytale Musical

Aschenbrödels Traum is a magical musical about hope, courage, kindness, and the power of believing in your dreams.

After losing her parents, Cinderella lives under the harsh rule of her selfish stepmother and stepsisters, who force her into a life of endless work. Despite her hardships, she remains compassionate and never loses faith that happiness can still be found.

When an invitation to the royal ball arrives, a magical encounter gives Cinderella the chance to fulfill her dream. At the palace, she meets the Prince, and the two instantly fall in love. But as the magic fades, Cinderella must flee before midnight, leaving behind a single glass slipper.

The Prince searches the kingdom for the mysterious young woman. When the slipper finally fits Cinderella, the lovers are reunited, proving that true love, courage, and kindness are stronger than envy and cruelty.

Venue

The Volksoper Wien, or Vienna People's Opera, is one of Vienna's major opera houses. It's located in the 9th district and is renowned for its diverse programming that includes operas, operettas, musicals, and ballets. Founded in 1898 originally as a straightforward theatre, it has developed into a globally recognized venue for accessible performances of a wide range of musical theater genres.

The Volksoper is Vienna's leading house for operetta, the lighter, more accessible cousin of opera, often involving spoken dialogue alongside music. It serves as a complement to the more formal Wiener Staatsoper, offering performances that appeal to a broader audience, including children and families. The repertoire includes classics by composers such as Johann Strauss, Franz Lehár, and Emmerich Kálmán, alongside well-known operas and popular musicals.

The Volksoper also has a commitment to cultivating new talents and features performances by up-and-coming artists as well as established stars. With approximately 300 performances a year, it plays a pivotal role in Vienna's cultural scene, providing entertainment that is both high in quality and varied in style. This opera house is an integral part of Vienna's rich musical heritage, offering a more casual and inclusive approach to the performing arts.
