The Ludwig II Musical
Continued from page 5: How to get there

ABOVE: The Musical Theater Neuschwanstein's glass walls offer panoramic vistas of the lake, mountains, and countryside.

Update: The musical, Ludwig II: Longing for Paradise, is no longer running. The Festspielhaus in Füssen in Allgäu now stages operas and other productions and continues to offer gastronomy at various price levels in the theatre's restaurants.

Tickets to the show

To order tickets, visit the official Ludwig II Musical Web site. Click "Tickets Online," and you'll find links to two ticket agencies. If the agencies' German-language listings and forms are too confusing, translate with AltaVista or--better yet--call the theatre's Ticket Hotline at the phone number on the Web site. The ticketing staff also can help you book a hotel room in Füssen if you'd like to spend the night.

Another possibility is to buy tickets through your hotel concierge or in person at the theatre box office, although tickets may be in short supply during high season or on weekends. (When I attended the musical on a Friday evening in late September, the theatre was packed.)
