!! WHAT That's amazing! I am shocked that Fredersdorf is included (especially given that he wasn't in the Fritz musical, lol). No Kaunitz?? But, like. MT is surely a natural for a musical, I'm actually kind of surprised there isn't already one!
Clearly you need to research this, by which I mean you need to go see this musical and report back! And where is prinzsorgenfrei?? (Aren't they active on tumblr? Do they know about this?? Will they find a bootleg with English subtitles so I can watch it too??)
I think whether or not prinsorgenfrei shows up will depend on the size of Fritz' role. :) Also there's no Katte. I mean, that is not a problem for me, because I'd rather have a Fredersdorf whose stage and musical debut this will be, unless I'm mistaken or have missed a Fritzian play featuring him, but Katte is her firm favourite.
(More seriously, I do expect Fritz to show up a lot in that musical, given he is the third named character directly after MT and FS. Now of course the big question is - tenor or bariton for Fritz? I mean, I really don't see him as a basso, and there are some villainous tenors, not just heroic ones. Otoh FS is bound to be a tenor, so he'll probably be a bariton.)
I have a crowded autumn, but I've been meaning to visit Vienna again for eons, and this is a great excuse. :)
