[26] Ultimately, thanks ironically to the German author of the original piece, the show arrived at much of its final form: during previews, 30% of the dialogue was cut to allow room to expand the score and arrive closer to the original almost sung-through concept; the vampire costumes were redesigned to look less freakish; a new staging of the shock ending set in modern times suggested by Kunze was inputted. She coaxes Alfred to leave the room (involving another encounter in the library, Noch mehr Bücher - Even More Books) while she gets dressed, but when Alfred returns, Sarah is gone and Herbert is in her place. The next morning, Chagal's frozen body is found; Rebecca is devastated (Trauer um Chagal - Mourning For Chagal). It's all about the darkness, the power of darkness and love's place in dark. (Sei bereit!) The show that is dear to me is still running in Vienna (sic). Alfred starts a panic, Chagal and Rebecca rush outside, but it's too late and Sarah's gone. Lippen und Wangen Some time in the late 19th century, Professor Abronsius and Alfred, his young but bumbling sidekick, arrive in a small Jewish shtetl somewhere in the Carpathians, where they hope to prove the Professor's theory that vampires actually do exist. [27] When the reviews came out, Jim Steinman made a show of his disapproval of the project by not attending opening night and publicly distancing himself from the show that had resulted from this "too many cooks" approach: "The show that I wrote is not at the Minskoff. Adding to the lack of a definitive creative head was the director's unplanned absence, due to his mother's death, which sidelined Rando from the production during several weeks of previews. Company morale was no better, as cast members began poking fun at Crawford's weight-sensitive costumes behind his back, calling him a "fat rooster. Ich will endlich eine Frau sein und frei (Sei bereit!) The Count appears to welcome her and manages to resist biting her, planning to save her for the ball the next night (Totale Finsternis - Total Eclipse). (For example, the new title of Nie geseh'n merely reflects the first line of the song replacing its original title, not a new number being written. At this point, the show needed some kind of drawing card to attract investors scared off by the previous snafus on the producing front. [14] Signing on as producers were Sonenberg and the producing team of Elizabeth Williams and Anita Waxman, then known for the critically acclaimed revival of The Music Man. Another unfortunate side-effect of the changing material was that with Steinman out of the picture, there was no one around to write new lyrical material as necessary in some cases, and so the English version (of necessity) borrowed a lot of new material from Steinman's lyrics for the previous English versions of what songs were recycled in the show (see song list below). The song "Tonight Is What It Means to Be Young" from the soundtrack to the film Streets of Fire was also used (remade as "Der Tanz der Vampire"). Ich bin zum Leben erwacht Alfred comes across a small bedroom where he finds Sarah in the bathroom, apparently unharmed. 3:34. Totale Finsternis ist ein Lied, welches im Musical Tanz der Vampire erscheint. On April 24, 2016, Tanz der Vampire began a touring production across Germany that concluded on March 17, 2019.[7][8]. Die Ewigkeit beginnt heut Nacht This refers to the original European version.). He is about to bite the girl, but Alfred, who has been spying on Sarah's bathing ritual, screams for help. According to The New York Times, it was "one of the costliest failures in Broadway history", losing roughly $12 million, easily eclipsing the infamous musical Carrie.[28]. [19] The possibility of the film role, meanwhile, was never mentioned again. For the tenth anniversary of the musical, Tanz der Vampire returned to the Raimund Theater for the week of February 3–11, 2007 in a scaled-down concert version. [Intro: Ensemble] Das Lied eröffnet den zweiten Akt des Musicals und wurde in Anlehnung an das 1983 veröffentlichte Lied Total Eclipse of the Heart von Bonnie Tyler geschrieben. Es kam, wie es kommen musste – Professor Abronsius war wieder einmal der Meinung, sein Verstand hätte triumphiert und begleitet vom Auszug der Troika durch den Saal schickten sich das Ensemble an ein letztes Mal den Tanz der Vampire auf die Bühne zu bringen. Verbrennen wir die Zweifel und vergessen die Zeit Magda climbs out, now a vampire, and finally concedes to having a sexual relationship with Chagal. 2009 Vienna Revival [3], The show had its German premiere in Stuttgart, Germany at the Apollo Theater and ran from March 31, 2000 to August 31, 2003. [Strophe: Sarah, Graf von Krolock & Ensemble] Manchmal in der Nacht gäb ich mein Leben her für einen Augenblick, in dem ich ganz dir gehör' Sarah enters the ballroom in an elegant red ball gown and approaches von Krolock. John Caird was to co-direct, and comic playwright David Ives was helping to reconfigure the book with a view toward a more comic angle instead of a straightforward adaptation of the successful Austrian version, which was deemed to be written in a style no longer accepted by Broadway critics and audiences. With most of the show's major creative team (including co-director Caird) based in London, a myriad of logistic delays were caused by mass cancellation of flights, among other variables. ... Während Alfreds Lied hat sich die Szene zurückverwandelt zur Bibliothek, in der nun allerdings alle Gegenstände spiegelverkehrt stehen. [Bridge: Sarah, Graf von Krolock, Beide] [13] As early 2001 approached, however, and a reading for potential producers and investors was announced in the news section of Steinman's fan website, things began taking on a more concrete shape. Jetzt laden die Vampire zum Tanz! Ich spür eine Sehnsucht, die mich sucht! [14] Later reports would claim that Crawford, paranoid about doing anything that could be compared to the Phantom, agreed with the party line that the piece should be a comedy on the lines of Mel Brooks and that he personally revised and rearranged the book to that end, causing co-librettist Ives to remark that he was a stenographer rather than a writer,[14] but in truth, the show already exhibited signs of much larger changes of a similar fashion as far back as the workshop production in mid-May 2001 before Crawford's casting; it seems that Crawford's major contributions at this time were in the vein of a "Continental accent" (a bizarre mix of Italian and Cockney tones that Crawford claimed made singing the score easier) and input on costume designs aimed at hiding alleged weight problems (jowls in particular). Nein, es wäre verkehrt, den Kopf zu verlier'n Finally, Waxman and Williams were ousted from the production, with Sonenberg assuming day-to-day responsibilities as the lead producer, a strategic move viewed by many as a power grab on Steinman's part (as one source put it, "he has the final say on everything").[17]. Polanski also directed the original German language production (titled Tanz der Vampire) of this musical. As Steinman later put it, looking back with a more jaundiced eye, "We were told to put five jokes on every page". The musical has thus far been played at the following international venues: (Note: Many changes in characterization were made for the Broadway version. In addition, portions of this synopsis may reflect later changes to the European show, which will become clear when one reads the song list below. From September 16, 2009 to June 25, 2011, Tanz der Vampire returned to Vienna at the Ronacher. The new version, described by Steinman to the press as "a big, Wagnerian musical with lots of humor [...] a lot of it is pure Mel Brooks and a lot of it Anne Rice"[15] and to the by-invitation-only audience as a musical for "people who think musicals suck,"[citation needed] was met with a mixed reception. Manchmal in der Nacht lieg ich im Dunklen und warte Was du erträumst wird Wahrheit sein Das Lied war als Total eclipse of the heart von Bonnie Tyler ein Welthit. (Sei bereit!) (Sei bereit!) Die Ewigkeit beginnt heut Nacht! Gruppe 1 und 4: Jetzt laden die Vampire zum Tanz! This song list also reflects the Japanese production in 2006. !I love it x3 As Alfred and the Professor make it outside, the sun sets and they are confronted by von Krolock, who mocks the Professor's naive attempt to destroy him (Sie irren, Professor - You're Wrong, Professor). Ich hab Mut! Having postponed the show, the team sought to bring in additional producers who could help get the show in on time. Koukol chases Alfred, Sarah and the Professor through the woods, but is attacked by wolves and killed. Von Krolock commands his vampire flock to attack Alfred and his mentor, but the former manages to form a makeshift cross out of two candelabras, causing a diversion. Alfred and the Professor make their way to the crypt (In der Gruft - In the Crypt), where they locate the two vampires. Wenn wir zwei Tanzen auf dem Ball heute Nacht…, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4RWOrF08bU. (Sei bereit!) [Bridge: Sarah] Attempting to reassure doubters, Steinman asserted in interviews that "Half the show [in Vienna] I had to talk Polanski into doing, and did it behind his back a lot. Totale Finsternis, ich glaube ich verlier' den Verstand! Schon im 1. Further casting sessions for secondary leads and ensemble were set for September 2001.[22]. Verbrennen wir die Zweifel und vergessen die Zeit Selbst zur Hölle würd' ich fahren mit dir! [14] By the time of opening, however, this mutual tomfoolery seemed to have been reined in; producer Bob Boyett had no complaints about Crawford's behavior, calling him "a great star and a total professional" and saying that he "didn't find him to be difficult at all." Die Musik dazu wurde von Jim Steinmann geschrieben, der auch die Lieder des Musicals komponierte. The next morning, Alfred wants to find Sarah and flee the castle (Ein perfekter Tag / Für Sarah - A Perfect Day/For Sarah), but Professor Abronsius is more concerned with staking Von Krolock and Herbert. Sich verlier'n heißt sich befrei'n The vampires arrive in the castle and the ball begins (Tanzsaal - The Dance Hall). [18] Of the four points of negotiation, Crawford won two, creative control and first refusal, eschewing the original salary (after initial press reports caused an outcry over his massive payday) for a much slimmer $30,000 a week. Its original title was Vampires in Love because I was working on a musical of Nosferatu, the other great vampire story. Alfred and the Professor continue searching the castle and separate in the library (Bücher, Bücher - Books, Books). Rando had never directed a musical of this size, and quickly proved overwhelmed according to cast members. (Sei bereit!) Der Tanz der wilden Herzen beginnt! Suddenly, Chagal sits up, now a vampire. Mit jeder Stunde des Wartens wird die lust mehr entfacht Es käm' einer, der mich führt und beschützt At the same time, Alfred is asleep with the Professor in a guest bedroom in another part of the castle, suffering from terrifying nightmares, with one nightmare, in which he loses Sarah to the bloodthirsty vampires (Carpe noctem). "[18] However, Crawford wanted some assurances before he would take on a planned three years in the role. Manchmal in der Nacht hab ich fantastische Träume 2010 Stuttgart Revival He's a great guy but he had a totally different vision". However, Sarah is already turned and bites Alfred mid-song, turning him into a vampire as well and both of them flee into the woods. Wir wollen alles und ganz!

[6] The show returned to the Theater des Westens in Berlin from November 14, 2011 to August 25, 2013. [16] Ultimately, the team came to an agreement with Michael Crawford, best known on Broadway at the time as the lead in Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera in the 1980s. On paper, put together by talented people, Dance of the Vampires looked like magic. Ich hüll dich ein in meinen Schatten und trag' dich weit! Wir sind tot, doch wir leben, The one at the Minskoff was just a job." Tauch mit mir in die Dunkelheit ein N ach der 1997 erschienenen Gesamtaufnahme von "Tanz der Vampire" legen die Vereinigten Bühnen Wien 13 Jahre später zum Wien-Revival des Kunze/Steinman-Musicals eine neue Gesamtaufnahme als Doppel-CD vor.

After exploring the rooms upstairs in which they are staying (Bitte, meine Herren - Please, Gentleman), Alfred discovers and is smitten by Chagal's beautiful seventeen-year-old daughter, Sarah. Ich hör eine Stimme, die mich ruft! Was du erträumst wird Wahrheit sein / Was ich erträum wird Wahrheit sein [25] Similarly, citing Sonenberg's inability to come up with his share of the investment, Steinman managed to get Sonenberg thrown overboard as a producer; the two did not speak for some time after the mutual firing. This article is about the Austrian, German-language musical based on Roman Polanski's film.

He demanded complete creative control of his character,[14] he wanted a "retirement package" of up to £20m a year ($180,000 a week in American money),[18] and he also preferred to have "first refusal" on (i.e., the option to reprise) the role in London and Los Angeles.
