Lehar Festival Bad Ischl 2026 - Boccaccio

With „Boccaccio“ Franz von Suppè created an operetta that shines in every aspect. A seemingly endless wealth of musical highlights, brimming with sophistication and exuberance, combines with the witty and humorous libretto by Friedrich Zell and Richard Genée to form a true masterpiece of operetta literature.

In medieval Florence, the infamous poet Boccaccio causes a stir. With his tales of the libertine love lives of Florentine women, he antagonizes the city\'s respectable gentlemen, while the women readily succumb to his charm. But soon, the audacious poet himself finds himself embroiled in a romantic adventure that promises more than just material for his next story. While the outraged mob publicly burns his works, Boccaccio has long since lost his heart to the most beautiful woman in Florence.

Franz von Suppè\\\'s operetta „Boccaccio“ is considered a true triumph – full of wit, charm, great melodies, and vibrant theatrical moments.

Secure your tickets in good time for this captivating operetta production at the Congress & Theater House Bad Ischl and experience an unforgettable evening full of music, humor and Italian flair.
