About this event

This production of Nino Rota's Der Florentiner Hut presents a classic opera buffa, blending Florentine elegance with lightness and humor. In her German debut, director Laura Attridge emphasizes the work’s wit and brisk stage rhythm. Rota—best known for his film scores—fills the opera with lively pastiche and affectionate nods to Rossini, Puccini, and Johann Strauss, keeping the momentum playful through to its nerve‑jangling conclusion. It’s both a homage to Italy’s art of hat‑making and a delightfully farcical roller‑coaster designed for sheer audience enjoyment.
