The Ronacher, one of Vienna’s most traditional theaters, was opened in 1872 as the “Wiener Stadttheater” with the premiere of Friedrich Schiller’s “Demetrius”. Originally founded to attract a middle-class audience, the house developed into a popular entertainment center under the management of Anton Ronacher after a fire in 1884. From 1886, it became known as the “Etablissement Ronacher”, where a variety of programs such as operettas, revues, dance shows, singing performances as well as appearances by athletes, illusionists and acrobats took place. After the Second World War, the Ronacher served as a replacement venue for the destroyed Burgtheater and was later used by ORF for recordings. Since 1987, the Ronacher has made a name for itself as a stage for top-class musicals. With a capacity of around 1000 seats and additional standing room, the theater offers an impressive experience. Major productions that have been staged at the Ronacher include “Cats” by Andrew Lloyd Webber, as well as in-house productions such as “Falco – A Cyber Show”, “Chicago”, “Dance of the Vampires” and many other world-famous musicals. The musical “Don Camillo & Peppone”, based on the well-known novels and film adaptations by Giovannino Guareschi, is currently thrilling audiences. From September, the popular musical “Dance of the Vampires” returns to the stage, telling the adventures of the vampire hunter Professor Abronsius.
