Chives by Hahn, от (2024/2024), Режисиран от Sascha-Alexander Todtner,, диригент Nicolas André, Staatsoper, Hamburg, Germany

"Ciboulette" - which means "chives" - is the name of the main character in the Parisian operetta by French composer Reynaldo Hahn, which premiered in 1923. A piece full of humor and nostalgia, melodic beauty and summery esprit. Director Sascha-Alexander Todtner takes the singers of the International Opera Studio on a journey into the queer, gender-fluid New York subculture of the 1980s and 1990s. We experience the world of drag and categories as well as characters who take on new roles and identities in changing constellations, until finally everyone has found not only love, but also their drag persona. With this production at opera stabile, this frivolous and nostalgic operetta by composer Reynaldo Hahn - star of the Parisian Belle Époque, friend and lover of Marcel Proust, son of a Jewish-born Hamburg entrepreneur - which has been performed on Parisian stages for many years, is finally coming to the Hanseatic city!
