Der Trommler- Der Kaiser von Atlantis- Teatro del Maggio- 2016

Il Kaiser Overall: una anglicizzazione ironica del tedesco Über Alles, nome appropriato per ridicolizzare un imperatore solitario, rinchiuso in un freddo palazzo, che parla solo con un altoparlante. Una fin troppo facile identificazione con Adolf Hitler  impedì la rappresentazione dell'opera nel ghetto di Theresienstadt nel 1944; dopo sia l'autore Viktor Ullman che il librettista Peter Kien furono internati e morirono ad Auschwitz. Una storia che è insieme satira e speranza, con la Morte che si rifiuta di sottostare alla continua guerra non prendendo più le vite degli uomini, che riscoprono l'amore: il Kaiser Overall, furioso, scende a patti e accetta di morire per primo per riportare la Morte sulla terra.

Kaiser Overall: an ironic anglicization of the German Über Alles, an appropriate name to ridicule a solitary emperor, locked up in his cold palace, speaking only with a Loudspeaker. A far too easy identification with Adolf Hitler prevented the performance of the opera in the Theresienstadt ghetto in 1944; later on both the author Viktor Ullman and the librettist Peter Kien died in Auschwitz. A story that is made of both satire and hope, with Death that refuses to submit itself to this never-ending war by not taking any more lives, people are then able to rediscover love: Kaiser Overall, furious, agrees then to die first in order to bring back Death on earth.
