The State Opera Director wants to change a lot
Vienna Opera without the cult builder Richard “Mörtel” Lugner (87)? Unthinkable for many! But of all things, the new Director of the State Opera, Bogdan Roscic (born 1964), is fighting for change.
Above all, he no longer wants to think that the ball is organized by Lugner. “The reader ‘Bild’ should no longer believe that the opera dance is a show he organizes with rented guests,” the Austrian media quoted him as saying. Going forward, admission tickets should also be given to those who support us year-round, including in the youth promotion area, Roscic said.
Won’t there be 30th anniversary for Lugner?
This bad news comes at a very unfavorable time for the regular guest, because in the next year, of all things, he would celebrate his personal 30th anniversary at the hostel, and that with a very special guest. “I am negotiating with a great guest, for whom I would dig deeply, and who would also please Mr. Roscic,” Lugner said, according to “ORF.”
In general, Lugner feels badly treated by the future plans of the new opera director. “As a regular guest who has paid for his accommodation for 30 years in good times and bad and with his guests has attracted worldwide attention to Vienna and the Opera Ball, I think it is a questionable solution,” said the Viennese.
Richard Lugner has invited an illustrious crowd of guests to his box in the past 30 years. These include Ornella Muti, Elle Macpherson, Kim Kardashian West, Harry Belafonte, Sophia Loren, Jacqueline Bisset, Nadja abd el Farrag, and many more.
