Wien 29.08.1992 dress rehearsal
Kitsch | Éljen ("Long live") | Mama, wo bist du | Nichts, nichts, gar nichts
__________
Yes, that's almost two minutes of chaotic dance sequence at the end there, beats me as well.
As for Wenn Ich tanzen will song, it was written only for the Essen production almost a decade later. Worth checking it out with Pia and Uwe singing though, they knock it out of the park imo.

CAST:
Pia Douwes (Elisabeth), Uwe Kröger (Death), Ethan Freeman (Luigi Lucheni), Viktor Gernot (Franz-Joseph), Else Ludwig (Sophie), Andreas Bieber (Rudolf)

Thank you so much for this! It's fun seeing the beginning of my favorite musical.

Hahah, it sure is all grown up now, isn't it?

The death guy reminds me of Viserys from Game of Throne, who got gold poured on his head. They look alike I think.

I'm confused... isn't Wenn Ich Tanzen Will suppose to come after Eljen? Where did it go?

[@magpie-7898]

Wenn Ich Tanzen Will is a later addition not present in the initial 1992 version. It wasn't written until the 2001 Essen run:)

@@magpie-7898 Wow thank you I didn't know that! Wenn ich~ feels so much like one of the centerpieces of the musical, I never dreamed it actully was a latter addition! Interesting how they keep changing the song orders& including new ones and such--one of the musical's many many charm! ;)

This Lucheni is heavy on the recitative, even for a Lucheni. ;) Who played him?

[@magpie-7898]

[@juliamavroidi8601]

Magpie - Thanks. I eatched this when they just switched to the new YT design and it wouldn't let me view descriptions for the first few days for some reason
