„Lie to me, I promise, I’ll believe“. Is a seducer always a cheat? Or is he himself being cheated on in return? Don Giovanni is the incarnation of the irresistible lover; a man who lightheartedly rushes from one conquest to another, who refuses to submit to any kind of moral claims on his person and who pays for his freedom with an incapability of forming an honest relationship with a woman or another person. Even his numerous mistresses are not really in love with Don Giovanni himself, but only make use of him as a mirrored image to project their own differing needs.
Andrea Moses’ staging of Mozart’s masterpiece convincingly demonstrates how all characters are interested only in his or her own exclusive advantage. Lies and manipulation are everywhere with Don Giovanni as possibly the most honest person amongst them.

English

Belüg mich – ich verspreche auch, dir zu glauben. Ist der Verführer immer auch Betrüger? Oder ist auch der Verführer ein Betrogener? Don Giovanni, der Inbegriff des unwiderstehlichen Verführers und darüber hinaus jemand, der sich von allen moralischen Ansprüchen befreit und scheinbar unbeschwert von einer Eroberung zur nächsten eilt, wird seinerseits zur Spiegel- und Projektionsfläche für die auf ihn fixierten Frauen. Andrea Moses inszeniert Mozarts und Da Pontes Meisterwerk als ein Labyrinth gegenseitiger Täuschungen. Vielleicht ist Don Giovanni unter all den Egoist*innen nur der ehrlichste?
