Gabriela Benesch & Mario Pecoraro - Die Udo Jürgens Story - Jubiläums-Edition - Theater Akzent - Wien - 2027

Theater Akzent, Wien

For a decade now, “The Udo Jürgens Story” has been enjoying an unprecedented run of success at the most prestigious concert venues in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. With nearly 600 concerts and around 350,000 enthusiastic audience members, it has established itself as the most successful and most frequently performed tribute show dedicated to the unforgettable music legend.
In 2027, this success story will culminate in an exclusive anniversary edition that sheds light on the life, love, and work of the grand seigneur of popular music more intensely than ever before. At the heart of the show is a perfectly synchronized duo combining musical brilliance with dramatic storytelling. With Mario Pecoraro, the production has secured an artist of the highest caliber for the anniversary tour. The internationally renowned pianist, singer, and composer interprets timeless classics such as “Merci Chérie,” “Griechischer Wein,” “Ich war noch niemals in New York,” and many more with an emotive precision that stands on equal footing with the originals. At his side, the multi-award-winning actress Gabriela Benesch guides the audience through the evening as the narrator. She offers the audience a deep glimpse into the soul of Udo Jürgens and shares moving—yet also amusing—anecdotes, some of which are based on the star’s personal notes. The 2027 anniversary tour promises to reveal new facets: In addition to his major global hits, rarely performed musical gems will be presented for the first time, reflecting the enormous breadth of Jürgens’s body of work. An emotional journey for all generations that once again pays a fitting tribute to the great entertainer.

A must-see for all Udo fans!
