Theater auf der Wieden
The Theater auf der Wieden, also called the Freihaus-Theater auf der Wieden or the Wiednertheater, was a theater located in the then-suburban Wieden district of Vienna in the late 18th century. It existed for only 14 years (1787–1801), but during this time it was the venue for the premiere of no fewer than 350 theatrical works,〔Krzeszowiak (2009, 69)〕 of which the most celebrated was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's opera ''The Magic Flute''. During most of this period the director of the theater was Emanuel Schikaneder, remembered today as librettist and impresario of ''The Magic Flute''.
==Origin==
The "Freihaus" was a large complex of businesses and residences belonging to the Starhemberg family. It was located at the northern edge of the Wiedner suburb, separated from the inner city by the "Glacis", the ring of open land that surrounded inner Vienna for purposes of military defense.
The Freihaus attracted intensive development because by an earlier Imperial decree (1647) it was free from taxation.〔Krzeszowiak (2009, 43). The exemption held good for the Starhembergs, not their tenants; presumably the heavy development of the complex occurred because the untaxed Starhembergs could offer lower rents.〕 The complex was called the "Starhembergische Freihaus" ("free-house of the Starhembergs"), from which was derived the name "Freihaus-Theater".〔Buch (2007, ix)〕
Christian Rossbach, a theater director who had already been successfully mounting productions in Vienna for several years,〔Krzeszowiak (2009, 74)〕 made an application to build a new theater in the Freihaus. This was approved 16 March 1787,〔Krzeszowiak (2009, 74)〕 and construction began, following a design by the architect Andreas Zach. The building was completed within six months and was opened for its first performance on 14 October.〔Krzeszowiak (2009, 78)〕
