On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Benjamin Britten’s birth, the Volksoper is showing his comic opera "Albert Herring". The local dignitaries of a small English town are concerned about a decline in morals and decide to reintroduce an old custom: an outstandingly virtuous maiden is to be crowned May Queen. But there are no maidens who meet their requirements, and so the title is given to Albert Herring, the greengrocer’s son. However, it only becomes apparent after his crowning as MayKing that his virtuousness is rather more due to a lack of opportunity.
