Thirty-seven thousand three hundred individuals assembled on the rock stage
The picturesque town of Rathen, nestled in the heart of Germany, played host to the 2023 Felsenbühne Festival. This open-air rock stage, renowned for its exceptional acoustics and diverse events, was once again the centre of attention as it played host to a variety of theatrical and musical productions.
Last year's festival, organised by Landesbühnen Sachsen, was a resounding success, attracting approximately 73,000 visitors over the course of 76 performances. The festival kicked off the summer season in style, with a lineup that included both premieres and successful productions from the previous summer.
Some of the highlights from the 2023 Felsenbühne Festival included the new staging of Carl Maria von Weber's romantic opera "Der Freischütz", the performance of Leonard Bernstein's musical classic "West Side Story", and Hugo von Hofmannsthal's thought-provoking play "Jedermann".
The festival also featured a number of productions starring well-known names such as Gojko Mitic, Tom Pauls, Jürgen Haase, and Tom Quaas, alongside the ensembles of Landesbühnen Sachsen. The audience was treated to a variety of performances, ranging from Wilhelm Hauff's fairy tale "Das kalte Herz" to the children's play "Pettersson and Findus", and the family-friendly production of "Peter Pan".
While the specific lineup for the 2024 Felsenbühne Festival is yet to be announced, the organisers have confirmed that the complete program for the summer will be published in October.
