The musical Chess by Benny Andersson, Tim Rice and Björn Ulvaeus was a success at the premiere in London. In 2002, Chess appeared in Swedish in an adaptation by Lars Rudolfsson and now we finally get to see it at the Gothenburg Opera.

Director Mira Bartovmake a set filled with strong characters and choreography. The comic book world's graphic style and bizarre characters permeate the set design and costumes, and the Cold War of the original is replaced with today's media-monitored society.

The action takes place during a televised chess championship between the two chess players Freddie and Anatolij. On one side is Freddie, a provocative superstar who voluntarily chooses to bask in the public light. On the other side stands Anatoly, a pawn in the game of domination in a world where surveillance is a threatening tool in the struggle for power. His Svetlana is the woman who takes care of everything but loses her husband when Anatoly falls in love with Freddie's girlfriend Florence. During a few turbulent days, their lives are turned upside down and when the championship is over, none of the people are the same.

As Anatoly we see and hear Philip Jalmelid . Freddie is made by Christopher Wollter . His girlfriend Florence is played by Evelyn Jons and Anatoly's wife Svetlana by Nina Pressing . Molokov is made by Johan Schinkler and the judge, who in this set is a double character, by the twin brothers Henrik and Magnus Rongedal .

Director Mira Bartov , formerly, among other things, artistic director of Folkoperan, makes his first musical after having directed several operas on both Swedish and international stages. Scenography and lighting design is done by Kristin Bredal and costume design by Anna Ardelius. Anders Eljas , who has been with the entire journey around Chess and Chess in Swedish, is responsible for the musical arrangements and rotates as conductor with Björn Dobbelaere .

English

Musikalen Chess av Benny Andersson, Tim Rice och Björn Ulvaeus gjorde succé vid urpremiären i London. År 2002 kom Chess på svenska i bearbetning av Lars Rudolfsson och nu får vi äntligen se den på GöteborgsOperan.

Regissör Mira Bartov gör en uppsättning fylld av starka karaktärer och koreografi. Serietidningsvärldens grafiska stil och bisarra figurer genomsyrar scenografi och kostym och originalets kalla kriget är utbytt mot dagens medieövervakade samhälle.

Handlingen utspelar sig under ett tv-sänt schackmästerskap mellan de båda schackspelarna Freddie och Anatolij. På ena sidan står Freddie, en provokativ superstjärna som frivilligt väljer att frossa i offentlighetens ljus. På andra sidan står Anatolij, en bricka i spelet om herraväldet i en värld där övervakning är ett hotfullt verktyg i kampen om makten. Hans Svetlana är kvinnan som tar hand om allt men som förlorar sin make när Anatolij förälskar sig i Freddies flickvän Florence. Under några turbulenta dagar vänds deras liv upp och ner och när mästerskapet är över är ingen av personerna densamma.

Som Anatolij ser och hör vi Philip Jalmelid. Freddie görs av Christopher Wollter. Hans flickvän Florence spelas av Evelyn Jons och Anatolijs hustru Svetlana av Nina Pressing. Molokov görs av Johan Schinkler och domaren, som i den här uppsättningen är en dubbelkaraktär, av tvillingbröderna Henrik och Magnus Rongedal.

Regissör Mira Bartov, tidigare bland annat konstnärlig ledare för Folkoperan gör sin första musikal efter att ha regisserat ett flertal operor på såväl svenska som internationella scener. Scenografi och ljusdesign görs av Kristin Bredal och kostymdesign av Anna Ardelius. Anders Eljas, som har varit med i hela resan runt Chess och Chess på svenska står för musikarrangemangen och varvar som dirigent med Björn Dobbelaere.
