Die Walküren

The Valkyries are blessed with the clearest view of the world. They have to watch what is happening on this earth – and it’s a lot. The world tree Yggdrasil, the source of all life, has dried. Wotan, god without a plan, destroys and rages. People are no better, and just follow his example. But at least, there is Brünnhilde, the only one of the Valkyries who is able to leave the rock. She seems to be able to fight the looming demise. Obstinate, strong and wayward, she is looking for a new order of things.
Maren Bues will stage Caren Jeß’ attack on this German myth – a turning point, a new narrative, clever, sharp and often very funny.

Ballet

Shechter – Goecke – Ekman

The three-part ballet evening Shechter - Goecke - Ekman celebrates the entire spectrum of human emotions. In Uprising by Hofesh Shechter, young men compete playfully, test their limits and find strength in friendship and solidarity. The Big Crying by Marco Goecke unfolds images of poetry and farewell with the utmost precision, while the choreography also celebrates life - accompanied by the haunting music of Tori Amos. Finally, Cacti by Alexander Ekman surprises with wit and self-irony, in which dance, music and props merge into a refreshing synthesis of the arts.

Rusalka

Rusalka has fallen madly in love with a human. She is ready to pay a high price if it means that she can leave her familiar waters behind and enter the strange sphere of human beings. To exchange her fishtail for two legs she will have to agree to lose her voice. Thus her love for the human prince has become literally unspeakable – and therefore doomed to fail because a shared communication has become impossible. Antonín Dvořák’s opera is a lyrical tale about how the sensitive individual is dashed against an accelerated and efficient world whose rules and regulations it is unfamiliar with.
