A Midsummer Night's Dream Britten

It's a hot, muggy summer. Andrew and Adrien, a city couple with undeniable sex problems, welcome two more couples to an idyllic country retreat. But what should be a whimsical summer fun among friends, in the magical intoxication of the animalistic, becomes a love-mad confusion in which everyone offers their hearts to each other. Woody Allen's hilariously enigmatic-comic nod to Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" illuminates the longings and desires of "completely normal city neurotics" for a summer retreat full of self-mockery and deeper meaning, and lovingly pokes fun at the mating behavior of love-mad two-legged friends.

English

Ein Sommernachtstraum
Oper von Benjamin Britten
Libretto nach William Shakespeare, eingerichtet von Benjamin Britten und Peter Pears
Benjamin Brittens „Ein Sommernachtstraum“ (englisch: A Midsummer Night’s Dream) ist das Idealbeispiel einer Literaturoper. William Shakespeares gleichnamige Komödie, die von den Wirrungen der Herzen rund um die Hochzeit des Athener Herrscherpaares Theseus und Hippolyta fantasiereich berichtet, wurde hier dramaturgisch exzellent umgegossen. Das dichte motivische Unterholz in Brittens musikalischem Zauberwald hält so manche Köstlichkeit bereit und macht dieses bildgewaltige Stück Musiktheater trotz seines zarten Alters (Uraufführung 1960 im Rahmen des Aldeburgh Festivals) zu einem der international meistgespielten Klassiker des britischen Musikschaffens.
