"The Bat" with its perfect mix of music and comedy, represents the highpoint of Viennese operetta.

Herr Einstein, a wealthy Viennese gentleman, has been sentenced to a short stay in prison, but he decides instead to go to a masked ball at the home of an exotic prince. There he encounters his own wife - disguised as a Hungarian countess. It turns out that her lover has been taken to prison in place of her husband, where he is under the eye of a drunken jail keeper...
...you can discover how everything turns out at the Schönbrunn Palace Theatre.
