1829 - 1832
The Saxony court takes over the Leipziger Stadttheater as the “Königlich Sächsisches Hoftheater zu Leipzig” under the general management from Dresden with Wolf Adolf von Lüttichau at its head. The Hoftheater episode ends at the Easter Trade Fair 1832 with a considerable financial loss.
From 1833 onwards
Again under the private theatrical management of Friedrich Sebald Ringelhardt (1832 – 1844), Albert Lortzing works as a singer, actor and conductor at the Leipziger Stadttheater. Between 1835 and 1846, nine operas are written in Leipzig, six of which are premièred in the city, including “Die beiden Schützen” (20.2.1837), “Zar und Zimmermann” (22.12.1837) and “Der Wildschütz oder Die Stimme der Natur” (31.12.1842).
