Die Fledermaus (The Bat) is a three-act operetta
composed by Austrian composer Johann Strauss II (October 25, 1825 – June
3, 1899). Libretto is written in German by Carl Haffner and Richard
Genée. It is based on "Le Réveillon" by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic
Halévy. It was premiered in Vienna, Theater an der Wien, on April 5,
1874. The setting is in 19th century Vienna. Johann Strauss II's famous operetta Die Fledermaus has the
Viennese brand of charm, sparkling orchestration, and much of the action
carried through with an almost Mozartian freedom. Notable Arias: "Klänge der Heimat" (Rosalinda), "Trinke, Liebchen" (Alfred), Orlofsky's aria (Orlofsky).
The Slovak National Theatre has box offices at both the New Building
(entrance from Olejkarska Street) and Historical Building (entrance from
Jesenskeho Street). The box office is always open an hour before the
start of each event and half an hour after the start of each event as
well as being open year round 8:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. during the week,
