Water above, water below. Soaked spectators with rain capes of varying quality sit in the stands. Many seats are empty in between. The mood is cautious. Probably because of the weather. Not a good omen for the starry night. Surprised from the start Barbara Schoeneberger with an unusual outfit choice. She wears yellow rubber boots with the polka dot dress.

“There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing,” says co-presenter Hans Sigl nonchalantly. For him, that is the motto of the first starry evening of the season. He addresses the dripping wet crowd directly: “Guys, I told you. It’ll be over soon.’ A few people cheer cautiously. “I looked again because I wasn’t sure anymore. Today is actually the beginning of summer. In Burgenland people still take their time,” Schöneberger jokes.

“How do you talk to me?”: Schöneberger is surprised by Sigl’s comment
“Enjoy the view of 350 square kilometers of bulging beauty with me tonight!” says Sigl enthusiastically. “How do you speak of me?” Schöneberger asks in surprise. “Honey, I mean Lake Neusiedler behind me,” the “mountain doctor” reassures her. Big Ben rises into the air behind the stage. It is part of the set design of My Fair Lady. In this respect, Lake Neusiedler has probably simply taken over its role as British capital. With appropriate London weather. And the moderation duo Sigl Schöneberger also remains British with the topics of discussion. Whether it’s Marina Marx, Edmund, Il Voglio or Marc Hammond. People (almost) only talk about the weather.
Mother says: Barbara Schöneberger upsets young musical actress
Of course, there is also editorial product placement in this hit show. This time for the current musical “My Fair Lady” at the lake. Barbara Schöneberger is visited by director Alfons Haider and the young leading actress Anna Rosa Döller (22). Like Schöneberger, a blonde. “You could be mother and daughter,” Haider says enthusiastically as the two embrace in greeting. “Stop it. Until recently I was also the daughter,” the presenter says angrily and turns to the young musical actress with a warning: “I can tell you very honestly. Now you play the daughter and in what feels like three years ” You play the mother. That’s what happened to me,” says the 50-year-old unusually loudly. Döller seems shocked for a moment and brushes her blond hair from her face. “Then I could be the grandfather,” Haider tries to reassure. “There are no more roles for you. You can appear again as a full moon or as a crab. That’s all,” says Schöneberger, interrupting Burgenland’s general music director. Haider grins and answers her with the most beautiful Austrian insult: “Darling, I leave the full moon to you. I will make the sickle.” An allusion to Schöneberger’s full figure? “I can do it without a costume. I’ll solve it in a minute,” Schöneberger answers ironically.

“I didn’t know I was a man”: Hans Sigl shocked by anecdote on high heels
“But the boots stay now?” Sigl asks his moderating partner after Miss May’s performance. “Once you feel comfortable, you won’t want to go back to high heels,” answers Barbara Schöneberger. “Who are you telling that to?” the Austrian replies dramatically. “Did you start too early?” Schöneberger wants to know. Sigl does not want to go into too much detail, but briefly explains that as a young actor he took part in the musical Rocky Horror Picture Show: “A stage technician fell in love with me then, before he knew that I was a man,” says the “Berg doctor” -actor.
“It’s just too much for me”: Hans Sigl bursts into laughter on stage
During the evening, Barbara Schöneberger goes into the audience and asks a rather wet woman if she is warm under her rain poncho. The lady puts on a good face in bad weather. When Schöneberger gave it back to her colleague shortly afterwards, he burst out laughing: “It’s all just too much for me. Your rubber boots! The wetlands under your raincoat,” Hans Sigl answers on stage and can’t stop laughing. After about a minute, the ‘mountain doctor’ tries to restrain himself again: “Barbara, you look really beautiful,” the otherwise talented actor says after a while, not very believably. Before you continue giggling. “Excuse me!” The show continues with Al Bano.
