VRABČÁK A ANDĚL

A musical drama about the friendship between Edith Piaf and Marlene Dietrich

 

Two prominent figures in world show business. One enchanted with her voice and tragic fate, the other with her charm and career in Hollywood. One longed for love and lived with emotions, the other rather collected love and did not believe in romance. One died young and mourned, the other lived in loneliness and controversy. They are so different, but they manage to find a common rhythm, common themes and even a common love.

 

The musical drama inspired by their fates and songs premiered in 2014 at the Burgtheater, where it met with disarming success. It is no wonder, as during the production almost two dozen immortal songs of both protagonists will be performed (live, of course, by the actresses)!

 

Tobacco products are used in the performance.
