Gulliver's Travels - Burgtheater Vienna

The absurd journeys of ship's doctor Lemuel Gulliver to Lilliput and the land of giants are full of fantasy and adventure; equally exciting are the lesser-known expeditions to the flying island of Laputa or the land of talking horses. Jonathan Swift's literary classic is primarily marketed as a children's book in the German-speaking world, but it is actually a biting satire: How absurd one's own existence seems when encountering completely different forms of life and worlds.

After THE MAGIC FLUTE – THE OPERA BUT NOT THE OPERA and CHESS NOVEL, Nils Strunk and Lukas Schrenk are now bringing a musical adaptation of the world-famous classic from 1726 to the stage. Our recommendation: Ideal from 8 years old! Mandatory from 21! Rejuvenating from 40! And of course, free entry from 99 years!
