Narrazione

Voce bianca

A "Romeo and Juliet" story in the age of social media: Two Russian teenagers hide from their parents in a hut. When the police track down the two, the situation escalates - and Denis and Katya let the world participate in the conflict via social media. The real actors and their worldwide viewers fuel each other, digital perception and reality blur. What appears to be a game in virtual space is becoming deadly serious. In the end the two youngsters are dead. Denis & Katyais based on a true story that British composer Philip Venables and his librettist Ted Huffman adapted into a highly concentrated musical theater piece that premiered in Philadelphia in 2019. A mezzo-soprano and a baritone reconstruct the teenage tragedy in the role of various witnesses. The main characters Denis and Katya only appear in these reports, overlaid with internet postings, WhatsApp messages, electro-acoustic sounds and an ensemble of four cellos. Beyond the real events, a gripping and up-to-date work of music theater is created.

English

Eine „Romeo und Julia“-Geschichte in den Zeiten von Social Media: Zwei russische Teenager verstecken sich in einer Hütte vor ihren Eltern. Als die Polizei die beiden aufspürt, eskaliert die Situation – und Denis und Katya lassen per Social Media die Welt an dem Konflikt teilhaben. Die realen Akteur*innen und ihre weltweiten Viewer befeuern sich gegenseitig, digitale Wahrnehmung und Realität verschwimmen. Was im virtuellen Raum Spiel zu sein scheint, wird bitterer Ernst. Am Ende sind die beiden Jugendlichen tot. Denis & Katya basiert auf einer wahren Geschichte, die der britische Komponist Philip Venables und sein Librettist Ted Huffman zu einem hoch konzentrierten Musiktheaterstück verarbeitet haben, das 2019 in Philadelphia uraufgeführt wurde. Eine Mezzosopranistin und ein Bariton rekonstruieren in der Rolle verschiedener Zeug*innen die Teenager-Tragödie. Die Hauptfiguren Denis und Katya erscheinen nur in diesen Berichten, überlagert von Internet-Postings, WhatsApp- Nachrichten, elektroakustischen Klängen und einem Ensemble aus vier Violoncelli. Jenseits der realen Ereignisse entsteht so ein packendes und aktuelles Musiktheaterwerk.
