The "artist in residence" at the Theater an der Wien in 2020/21 is one of the most powerful singer-actors and versatile song performers of our time: the Austrian baritone Florian Boesch.

The hit productions Platée (Jean-Philippe Rameau) and Saul (Georg Friedrich Handel) will be resumed. Then there are eight opera concertante from Porpora to Handel and Haydn, special projects and cabaret at "Hölle" in the basement of the Theater an der Wien.
Tip: Chamber Opera
The Young Ensemble of the Theater an der Wien can be experienced in the Kammeroper, the second performance venue of the Theater an der Wien. Much is possible: from the portrait concert to the unconventional reinterpretation of a major opera. You can get especially close to the performers in the little opera house in the heart of the city.
On the program for 2020/21: Bajazet (Antonio Vivaldi), Giasone (Francesco Cavalli), Il Barbiere di Siviglia (Gioachino Rossini) and Tristan Experiment (set to Richard Wagner).
