RESUME
24.9.2021 LARGE HOUSE

Half an hour before the premiere of his first major opera seria, a young composer receives bad news: it is to be performed together with a harmless comedy – at the same time. The conflict in Strauss'  prelude to  Ariadne auf Naxos  could not be more appropriate for our current situation, since today it is still important to make the seemingly impossible possible.

Afterwards, Hans Werner Henze's farce Das Wundertheater will be performed again at the STAATSTHEATER. A traveling theater company promises the gullible inhabitants of a small village the theater spectacle of their lives; but there is a catch - only "sincere Christians" will be able to see it. For fear of losing face in public, the descriptions of the villagers overturned about what was on offer. Henze's first opera, based on an intermezzo by Miguel de Cervantes, holds the mirror up to bourgeois narrow-mindedness and exposes bigotry and philistinism as a timeless parable.

The unusual double evening juxtaposes the directing styles of two up-and-coming directors; Head director Anja Kühnhold draws for the prelude to Ariadne auf Naxos , while Julia Burbach makes her debut with Das Wundertheater in Karlsruhe.

Vorspiel zu Ariadne auf Naxos/Wundertheater by Strauss, Henze, Sun 07 Nov 2021, From (2021/2021), Directed by Anja Kühnhold,, Conductor Georg Fritzsch
