Veronica Fusaro has commented on a challenging first rehearsal in Vienna, after issues were experienced with the prop for her performance of \u201cAlice\u201d.<\/p>\n
SRF reports that the Swiss representative had a challenging first day at the Wiener Stadthalle, as she took to the Eurovision Song Contest stage for the first time. The Swiss broadcaster explained that within their 30 minute time slot, Veronica Fusaro was only able to perform twice due to the challenges with the prop in her performance. It states that there were issues setting up the prop, which is formed of net walls and ropes on stage. Veronica told SRF that:<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a bit frustrating when things don\u2019t work out that aren\u2019t my fault,\u201d<\/p>\n
Following the rehearsal, as with all delegations, they had the opportunity to review their performance and give feedback to provide a chance for further changes in their second rehearsal on Friday. The Swiss performance has been staged by Benke Rydman, with Luigi Gaballo styling Veronica\u2019s appearance. <\/p>\n
Veronica Fusaro was selected to represent Switzerland at Eurovision 2026, having applied three times to represent the country. She and \u201cAlice\u201d were chosen through a multi-stage internal selection process. Veronica Fusaro will perform \u201cAlice\u201d in slot 7 in the second semi-final on May 14.
