Schauspiel

König Lear

“Alas, I do not wear my heart on my tongue and my love on a tray”, Cordelia dares to tell her father, King Lear. He had requested his three daughters to assure him of their love so that he could distribute land, power and responsibility among them according to the extent of their affection.
In his adaptation, Thomas Melle exacerbates the conflict over power and its renunciation in the battle between the generations. He stays close to Shakespeare’s original but focusses on one question: Is change possible or is power a system that everyone must succumb to, no matter what age or gender?

Satyagraha

How can we confront injustice in society? As a young lawyer in South Africa, Mahatma Gandhi developed a spiritual answer to this question: "Satyagraha", adherence to the truth. The truth is propagated here as the most effective means in the fight against injustice; the opposing side is to be convinced by peaceful means, through non-violent resistance. Philip Glass has dedicated an emphatic work of art to this idea with his great choral opera Satyagraha: his catchy minimal music transports us to other spheres of consciousness, the timeless verses from the Bhagavadgita invite us to inner contemplation - an inspiring experience.

Peer Gynt

 Peer Gynt is a young man who likes to escape into his fantasy world to elude reality. He dreams of a better world, of a fairy-tale reality. His journey takes him through imaginative landscapes – from Norway’s mountains through the kingdom of the trolls to the deserts of Arabia. The renowned choreographer Edward Clug, appearing for the first time at the State Ballet of Hanover, interweaves music, narration and dance into a captivating artistic synthesis in this full-length story-driven ballet.
