Martin Ganeider

Martin Ganeider, born in the beautiful mountains of Austria (not so Sound of music as some might think), fell in love with Musical theatre when he found a Vinyl from the Austrian production of CATS. At 16, he made a tough decision: quit Soccer and join a local ballet school. He loves to Dance and travel and is a coffee and sports addict. Martin can be seen on the  TANZSCHRITT TV YouTube channel. He is a member of the Austrian musical magazine MUSICALCOCKTAIL and was part of the UND BITTE podcast with Julia Vieregge and Konstantin Zander. You can find Martin at the theatre or on the running course. Martin loves to talk about Musical Theatre and sipping coffee.

  • TITANIC THE MUSICAL - Because Director Simon Eichenberger created an epiphany on stage of the magnificant Landestheater Linz.
  • The Secret Party - Because of the genius of Jaques Brel and the likes of Ann Mandrella, Milica Jovanović, Matthias F. Trattner and Drew Sarich. An unforgettable evening i really enjoyed to write about.

  • CATS - Because it is CATS. I grew up with it and it has been the show to open and close during the Covid 19 Pandemic. It has been the first one to reopen with a special health-security protocoll. Again, something to remember, a very special show during a very special time.
  • MAMMA MIA ON TOUR - Because its been the first thing i have ever written for broadwayworld. The begining of a wonderful adventure

Review: CANDIDE at Museumsquartier Halle E
January 19, 2024

Leonard Bernstein's masterpiece, Candide, is back in Vienna for a strictly limited run. Based on Voltaire's 18th-century novel, Bernstein created a so-called comic operetta, or as some might say, a musical in an old-fashioned way. You may call it whatever you want. At the end of the evening, it is a beautifully crafted piece of art.
