With "Es geht um die Wurst - Eine turbulente Verführung frei nach Mozart", the Serkowitz Volksoper is bringing its new summer theater production to the stage of the Saloppe Dresden from 15 June 2026. The production will once again be directed by Clemens Kersten, who was responsible for the production last year. The play will be performed on the Saloppe's circus wagon stage, with a total of twelve performances planned until mid-September. Advance sales have already begun.
The new play centers around a bratwurst stand at a fair - and a chaos that quickly takes on much larger proportions. A family man gets into criminal entanglements, representatives of different religions lose their faith among drinkers of all people, and Mozart's "Abduction from the Seraglio" threatens to fail on the stage opposite. Only a trio of jugglers brings movement to the muddled situation. As is so often the case with the Serkowitz folk opera, the piece combines humor, musical playfulness and satirical points with a clear reference to the present day.
