Elisabeth, the musical

The story
The musical Elisabeth first had it’s premiere in the ‘90’s in Vienna. The producers were of the impression that every generation deserves it’s own Sissi. They based their show on new information about her life which had recently been published. A biography with diary notes by the Greek teacher which Elisabeth had. The show was a portrait of the empress as a modern woman who wished to travel her own road but became trapped in a life of royal etiquette and the threatened fall of the monarchy.
