What happens when you mix a love triangle, a mischievous prank war, and more champagne than anyone should reasonably consume? Well… you’ll have to come to the party to find out. Johann Strauss II’s beloved operetta Die Fledermaus (The Revenge of the Bat) comes to life in a fresh new production, presented with a full English translation and reimagined in 1895 Denver at the height of the gold boom. Follow a wealthy banker, his quick-witted wife, and their spirited friends as they tumble through an evening of mistaken identities, glittering disguises, and hilariously tangled misadventures. Join us at The Rialto Theater, Loveland’s premier performing arts venue, for sumptuous costumes, dazzling singing, and a night overflowing with laughter—a celebration worthy of Orlofsky himself.
