JOHANN STRAUSS - YOUR HOST
THE MASTER. THE STORYTELLER. THE HOST.
Johann Strauss returns as the charismatic host of STRAUSS LIVE. Brought to life through ultra-realistic digital storytelling, he appears throughout the evening to introduce musical worlds, connect moments of the show and bring his unmistakable personality, humour and Viennese spirit to the stage.
Storytelling
One evening.
One journey.
STRAUSS LIVE is conceived as a continuous theatrical journey rather than a sequence of individual concert numbers. Johann Strauss connects the musical chapters, while live performance, visual storytelling, choreography and cinematic transitions carry the audience from elegance and romance through humour and theatricality to an explosive finale.
