Graz Opera Coute
Debutantes: they open the ball night of the year
50 young ladies and gentlemen open the 24th Opernredoute in Graz. We present three couples in more detail here: What motivates them and what challenges they face on the dance floor.
While all the other debutante couples waltz across the dance floor in pairs, Karin Mandic and her brother Markus Schreiber are a threesome: Karin's baby is due in June. "I had to buy a new dress," says the employee of the Conny & Dado dance school in Graz. "But the tulle skirt conceals the belly quite well."
Uncle Markus also has a very special role to play as a gymnast: he is catapulted spectacularly into the air. "We must have practiced this 50 times before we tried it on a parquet floor." The siblings are therefore "a little nervous". But the joy clearly outweighs this.
Many medals won
Markus Faymann and Lena Strohriegel are real professionals. The inclusive couple have been dancing together for years, but Saturday was their first time at the grand opening of the Opernredoute. "We have won many medals at the Special Olympics dance competitions," they say happily. Joachim Lampel and Laetitia Gauby, the second inclusive couple, know what's important in the evening: "I'll stay super focused and smile," says Lampel. After the polonaise, they enjoy the evening together. "And we'll definitely dance along to the quadrille!" says Gauby. A legendary ball night!
"Moonstruck" night starts at 9 pm
The opening of the 24th Grazer Opernredoute starts at 9 pm on Saturday, with admission from 6.30 pm. This year's guest list includes politicians from the Vice-Chancellor downwards as well as celebrities such as Lugner's widow Simone.
At midnight, the artists of the Graz Opera show what they can do. The sold-out event with 2500 guests officially lasts until 5am.
