The Lehar

This room is named after a famed Operatic Composer, as are all our ground floor rooms, Franz Lehár was an Austro-Hungarian composer. He is mainly known for his operettas, of which the most successful and best known is The Merry Widow (Die lustige Witwe). Individual songs from some of the operettas have become standards, notably "Vilja" from The Merry Widow and "You Are My Heart's Delight" ("Dein ist mein ganzes Herz") from The Land of Smiles . His most ambitious work, Giuditta in 1934 is closer to opera than to operetta. It contains the ever popular "On My Lips Every Kiss is Like Wine" which is still heard in Vienna today. 

This room is often used for a variety of events from rehearsals, auditions, classes, clubs, workshops, dressing rooms, meetings and overflow of the Offenbach.
