Bad Dante Bad English Bad Opera (Purgatorio I-IX) by Spreafico Eckly and Matteo Fargion is a 90 minutes long chamber opera that revises the first 9 canti of Dante's…

​Playful chamber opera about the waiting souls of purgatory.

Bad Dante Bad English Bad Opera is a new version of Dante's classic Purgatory from The Divine Comedy. The strict verse form from the original Italian version has been transferred to the music's rythm, and the text has been rewritten into anti-academic "street language" English.

From a stripped-down stage, four singers / actors and three string players present the first nine cantos of Purgatory: Antepurgatorio. Here, in transit between hell and paradise, Dante meets the souls who are waiting to atone for their sins. Human emotions such as imperfection, justice, confusion, and tolerance are explored in a smart, refreshing, and humorous way.

The chamber opera Bad Dante Bad English Bad Opera is created by Spreafico Eckly, the Bergen-based production company of writer and theatre director Andrea Spreafico, and composer and artist Matteo Fargion.

English

​Lekende kammeropera om skjærsildens ventende sjeler.

​Bad Dante Bad English Bad Opera er en ny versjon av Dantes klassiske Skjærsilden fra Den gudommelige komedie. Den strenge verseformen fra den italienske originalversjonen er overført til rytmene i musikken, og teksten er omskrevet til anti-akademisk «gatespråk»-engelsk.  

Fra en nedstrippet scene presenterer fire sangere/skuespillere og tre strykere de ni første sangene i Skjærsilden: Antepurgatorio. Her, i transitt mellom helvete og paradis, møter Dante sjelene som venter på å gjøre bot for sine synder. På smart, forfriskende og humoristisk vis utforskes menneskelige følelser som ufullkommenhet, rettferdighet, forvirring og toleranse.  

Kammeroperaen Bad Dante Bad English Bad Opera er skapt av Spreafico Eckly, det bergensbaserte produksjonsselskapet til tekstforfatter og regissør Andrea Spreafico, og komponist og artist Matteo Fargion.
