Floating Stage of the Bregenz Festival

"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages."

— William Shakespeare

 

Incredible floating stage on Lake Constance in Bregenz, Austria. The Bregenzer Festival has become famous for its unconventional staging. They really outdid themselves here! Verdi's Opera, "A Masked Ball" in 1999, featured a giant book being read by a skeleton. Genius.
