High Society Shines in Vienna
By Linda Tancs
The evening view of the Vienna State Opera is spectacular, but what happens in it today has high society all aglow. The auditorium of the State Opera hosts debutantes in white rustling gowns crowned with crystal tiaras and men in tails, regaling guests in a precise and dizzying waltz around the dance floor. Held on the Thursday before Ash Wednesday, a ticket to the ball is one of the world’s most coveted. Get your dancing shoes ready for next year.
