Gasparone: Dresden State Operetta

About the Event

The Dresden State Opera presents Matthias Oldag’s production of Carl Millöcker’s operetta Gasparone, a virtuosic production that remains true to the very first staging.

Carl Millöcker grew up surrounded by theatre, an upbringing that bred a profound familiarity with theatrical conventions and devices. Gasparone exemplifies his technique and approach and has been performed everywhere from Berlin to New York.
