This is the second year that Alberta Vocal Arts will present Die Fledermaus, an operetta written by Johann Strauss II.

Artistic and executive director Kathleen Morrison says they're hoping to make a presentation of the operetta an annual tradition.

"In Germany, it is the New Year's tradition," said Morrison. "It's in line with The Nutcracker and The Christmas Carol, and I always loved that you knew what the story was, you knew what you were going to see and it's so much fun on stage that we need that in January in Calgary."
