Casinos Austria views cultural engagement as a social responsibility and an investment in diversity and social cohesion — culture and the arts should be accessible to everyone. A partnership with the Mörbisch Lake Festival represents a link with one of the country’s summer theatre festivals that is most steeped in tradition. Casinos Austria wishes the entire cast and crew, both on stage and behind the scenes, every success with their upcoming performances. Along with all culture lovers, Casinos Austria also looks forward to the charming mistaken-identity comedy “Ein Käfig voller Narren” (“La Cage Aux Folles”).
“Make the 13th pay off!” – special lucky moments for the audience
Under the slogan “Der 13. zahlt sich aus!” (“Make the 13th pay off!”), every 13th booking made by phone on the 13th of April, May, June and July for the production “Ein Käfig voller Narren” will receive an exclusive invitation to visit the casino.
Another highlight is scheduled for August 13: all guests in the 13th row will receive a programme and an invitation from Casinos Austria to visit the casino. Casinos Austria will also be offering a complimentary drink during the interval, adding yet another enjoyable moment as part of the festival evening.
Erwin van Lambaart, Director General of Casinos Austria: “Ein Käfig voller Narren shows what it is that makes a society a society: solidarity, respect and the freedom to be yourself. Culture consistently brings stories to the stage to bring people together. As a successful company, we too have a responsibility to create social value for Austria, a responsibility we have been living up to for almost 60 years. Austria can be justly proud of its diverse cultural landscape, and it is a great pleasure for Casinos Austria, as a cultural sponsor, to help ensure that enjoyable moments and inspiring experiences – such as those that the Mörbisch Lake Festival has been creating for many decades – touch people directly.”
The Mörbisch Lake Festival also sees this collaboration as a partnership between two institutions that stand for quality, entertainment and unique experiences. Alfons Haider, Artistic Director of the Mörbisch Lake Festival: “It is the combination of first-class artistic quality and well-conceived, spectacular productions that fascinates the audience. We want to whisk our visitors away to a magical world far away from everyday life and treat them to an evening full of happy moments. Casinos Austria is all about creating such moments and providing the best possible entertainment, which is why I am delighted that we are kicking off this coming season together. Casinos Austria’s sponsorship is a vital contribution to putting together a spectacular production that will enthral our audience.”
