A musical focused around a real-life Austrian historical figure and staged in Vienna. This is the story of the unconventional marriage between the actor, singer, director, writer and stage manager Emanuel Schikaneder and his wife Eleanore, the relationship between them and their impact on the artistic circles of their era. What starts as a juvenile, carefree love develops into a truly mature partnership with all its highs and lows that profoundly influences Vienna’s theatre world. Without it, one of the greatest works of opera – “The Magic Flute” – would never have been written.
