About the event
Following the great success of Manfred Altmann’s Beatles evenings over the past two years, this year, by popular demand from many, especially female, fans, he will dedicate himself to the still active, 1945-born singer legend Sir Rod Stewart. You can look forward to seeing which songs from Rod Stewart’s extensive catalogue Manfred Altmann will choose. Fortunately, he will once again be joined by his regular line-up (Franz Sipos, g, voc / Lukas Schildberger, g / Toni Seebauer, keys / Gerhard Strauhs, b, voc / Michael Ebn, dm / and Alfred Kern, sax, fl).
For the first time at the Christmas rock concert, the now legendary Bruck band Risi/Bisi will be performing. Loud, direct, and captivating – that’s how you can describe the group led by singer Smirre. For more than 30 years, the cover rock band has been bringing well-known songs from several decades to the stage. With their mix of rock, punk, and pop, and plenty of live energy, Risi/Bisi transforms every performance into an energetic concert that leaves no one standing still or even sitting. The crowd will go wild.
Venue
Stadttheater
Raiffeisengürtel 43, 2460 Bruck an der Leitha
The Stadttheater, one of Bruck an der Leitha's most distinctive buildings, is located on the Raiffeisengürtel. The former summer theatre was built in 1904 in the Art Nouveau style, its bright façade with the wide gable showing from the outside that stage culture is at home here. After a renovation, the building was reopened in 1988 and has since been home to many artists and events. The large hall offers around 200 seats with flexible seating or up to 400 standing places. A permanently installed sound system and controllable lighting technology make it suitable for concerts as well as theatre; the municipality makes the building available to associations and organisers. The programme is accordingly diverse: Ernst Molden and Polka Streng have performed here, Christoph Bochdansky has showcased his unique stage art, and Christmas theatre also came to the stage with “Der Messias”.
