The Shadow of the Empress: Fairy-Tale Opera and the End of the Habsburg Monarchy explores how the changing circumstances of politics and society transformed their opera and its cultural meanings before, during, and after the First World War.

Join author/scholar Larry Wolff as he explains the significance of this rarely performed opera just in time for the SF Opera's upcoming performance of Die Frau ohne Schatten.
