ŠIŠMIŠ
( Opereta se izvodi na hrvatskom jeziku u prepjevu Vladana Švacova)
Komična opereta u tri čina Šišmiš / Die Fledermaus hvaljeno djelo Johanna Straussa mlađega praizvedeno je 1874. u Beču, odmah postavši sinonimom operetnoga žanra. U samo šest godina opereta je postavljena u više od 170 kazališta njemačkoga govornog područja, što jasno ilustrira njezinu golemu popularnost. Mnogi je nazivaju operetom nad operetama, Gustav Mahler ju je proglasio najboljom komičnom operom, a hvalili su je i Franz Liszt, Richard Wagner, Johannes Brahms, Arturo Toscanini, Herbert von Karajan, Leonard Bernstein i mnogi drugi veliki umjetnici. Libreto su napisali Richard Genée i Karl Haffner na temelju farse Zatvor Juliusa Rodericha Benedixa i vodviljskoga komada Le Révellion Henrija Meilhaca i Ludovica Halévyja. Nastala iz kazališne lakrdije vodviljskoga tipa posjeduje sve značajke, prvenstveno orkestralne i vokalne, komične opere još iz vremena Mozarta i Rossinija. Sjedinjujući parišku sklonost parodiji s bečkim šarmom koji nika- da nije sentimentalan, Strauss je stvorio djelo koje je poslije režije Maxa Reinhardta na sceni berlinske Opere 1928. postalo punopravnim dijelom oper- nih repertoara diljem svijeta. Šišmiš se u velikome stilu i zasluženo vraća na najveću zagrebačku kazališnu pozornicu uoči božićnih i novogodišnjih blagdana, kako mu i priliči, pod dirigentskom palicom Srbe Dinića u režiji Krešimira Dolenčića.
A comical operetta in three acts The Bat / Die Fledermaus, a praised work of Johann Strauss the younger had its world opening night in 1874 in Vienna, immediately becoming a synonym of the operetta genre. In only six years, the operetta was staged in more than 170 theatres in the German-speaking regions, and this clearly illustrates its great popularity. Many consider it the operetta of all operettas. Gustav Mahler proclaimed it the best comic opera and it was also praised by Franz Liszt, Richard Wagner, Johannes Brahms, Arturo Toscanini, Herbert von Karajan, Leonard Bernstein and many other great artists. The libretto was written by Richard Genée and Karl Haffner after the burlesque The Prison by Julius Roderich Benedix and vaudeville piece Le Révellion by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy. Emerging from the theatre vaudeville burlesque it had all the features, primarily orchestral and vocal of a comic opera from the time of Mozart and Rossini. Uniting the Parisian tendency for parody with Viennese charm that was never sentimental, Strauss created a work that after the staging of Max Reinhardt on the stage of the Berlin Opera in 1928 became a rightful part of the opera repertoire around the world. The Bat returns in great style to the largest Zagreb theatre stage during Christmas and New Year's holidays. The conductor is Srba Dinić and stage director Krešimir Dolenčić.
