WE ARE MUSICAL
Big musical festival to kick off the season at the Ronacher
Saturday, October 4, 12 – 5 pm
On Saturday, 4 October 2025, Vereinigte Bühnen Wien once again invited guests to the Ronacher theatre for the big musical festival WE ARE MUSICAL. Once again, visitors were treated to a varied entertainment programme – including exclusive behind-the-scenes insights.
On the open-air stage, musical stars Clemens Otto Bauer, Roy Goldman, Denise Jastraunig, Wietske van Tongeren, Lisanne Clémence Veeneman and Anton Zetterholm performed the most beautiful songs from VBW musicals and from the current production THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, enchanting the audience. A musical dance & musical sing-along was also on the programme. Robert Steiner and the popular rat ‘Rolf Rüdiger’ guided the audience through the programme.
A special highlight were the show highlights from MARIA THERESIA – THE MUSICAL, in which selected scenes were presented and cheered by the audience even before the world premiere on 10 October.
In addition, employees of the Vereinigte Bühnen Wien provided personal insights into their work during exciting workshop discussions. The large souvenir flea market invited visitors to browse and was also very popular.
