Even over one hundred years after its first performance in 1915, this parade of hits from the Silver Age of operetta still has great appeal. Director and libretto editor Peter Lund grants a new lease of life to the bittersweet love story set on the brink of the First World War. Prince Lippert-Weylersheim wonders what ought to be done when his son Edwin’s liaison with a cabaret singer destabilises the family honour. And how to proceed when his wife’s well-kept secret comes to light?
