Ingolstadt, 1926. The Pioneer is in the country! Dispatched to build a bridge, the group of soldiers is welcomed as an exciting diversion in the orderly routine of small-town life. The unemployed Alma quickly makes the acquaintance of the foreign pioneers and sergeants. The maid Berta wants to do likewise. Her chosen one, Karl, who is regularly harassed by his military superiors, warns: whoever loves him must suffer. Nevertheless, Berta seeks love with him, while the young Fabian fails in his advances toward her. The advice from those around them is: in love a man must be cold. The system of pressure that holds the men firmly in its grip discharges painfully in every one of their encounters, tearing unbridgeable rifts in their dealings with one another.

Fantasio's name says it all. With an overdose of humor, craziness and creative energy, the title character navigates through every situation, no matter how tricky, and turns everything upside down. A wonderful role model for Anna Weber, an expert in musical comedies and their adaptations for the stage. Wherever she directs, tears of laughter and a breath of fresh air are guaranteed. For Wiesbaden, she has unearthed an unknown gem by Jacques Offenbach with "Fantasio" and has woven the premiere cast into her new version with a singer.
