Musicals in Vienna
The 80s, wild nuns and Japanese drummers
Contemplative my ass. Numerous cult musicals are making a stop in Vienna until the end of the year. The Krone has an overview and also knows what else is going on during Advent and beyond.
Exactly 40 years ago, the dance film Flashdance captured the hearts of audiences and captivated an entire generation. The musical version with hits such as "What a feeling" and "Maniac" can be seen at the Wiener Stadthalle until December 20. The focus is on the young Alex Owens, who is determined to become a professional dancer and experiences many highs and lows along the way. The unique atmosphere of the 80s is brought to life.
Japanese attitude to life
Rhythms of a different kind can be experienced from December 17 to 21 in Hall E of the MuseumsQuartier when Yamato - The Drummers of Japan present their new show "Hinotori - The Wings of the Phoenix" - with 40 drums, including the impressive 500-kilo Odaiko. Traditional Japanese instruments such as the three-stringed shamisen or the bronze-colored chappa cymbals add additional facets to the sound cosmos. The masters of Japanese taiko drumming have already thrilled 10 million viewers worldwide.
Heavenly and magical
Things get heavenly from 23 to 28 December in the Wiener Stadthalle with Sister Act, the musical based on the 1992 cult film. The eccentric nightclub singer Deloris van Cartier accidentally witnesses a murder after her performance and ends up in a convent as part of the witness protection program - and turns the nuns' lives upside down. The music was written by 8-time Oscar winner Alan Menken.
Austria's biggest magic show by young magician Fab Fox will be performing at the Marxhalle from December 19 to January 12. In "Dream the Impossible", spectators will be amazed by teleportations, an airplane that manifests itself on stage and much more.
