Operetta in three acts (1895)
Music by Johann Strauss Sohn
Libretto by Gustav Davis
Version for the Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz

This Strauss operetta is all about getting things sorted out, not just affairs of the heart but also botanical classifications. Is there such a thing as black woodruff? No? Yes? Into the punch-bowl it goes, colour immaterial. And fear not, true love will prevail!

Guest performance by the Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz Munich on behalf of Johann Strauss 2025 Vienna
