Fantasio: A sparkling opera evening between melancholy, wit, and stage magic

With Jacques Offenbach's Fantasio, an Opéra comique comes to the stage at the Theater Am Hagen in Straubing, artfully intertwining romantic longing and sharp esprit. The production opens the 2026/2027 season in music theater and takes the audience into a fairy-tale Bavaria, where disguise, love, and courtly power collide.

A student, a court jester, and a story full of transformations

At the center is a melancholic student who disguises himself as a court jester to save a princess from an arranged marriage. This constellation carries the dramatic tension of the piece: Offenbach's music combines buffonesque lightness with lyrical depth, the characters move between masquerade and truth, between political intrigue and tender approach.

Offenbach's sound world: Comedy with a romantic undertow

The score of Fantasio is considered sparkling and yet sensitive. In addition to comedic moments, an iridescent sound language unfolds, which already points to the poetic world of Hoffmann's Tales. It is precisely this mixture that makes the stage experience so appealing: The theater atmosphere thrives on the interplay between buoyant irony, fine ensemble scenes, and quiet, almost floating moments.
