LOL – Laughing Out Lonely
New solo opera by Matilde Böcher

The basement under the Opera
18.08.23 – 20.08.23

The lonely, faceless existences of the Internet are given a voice in this newly written solo opera – a big voice! Experience countertenor Morten Grove Frandsen spanning ten very different roles in a complete dramatic universe, effectively staged in the deep basement under the Opera.
In close collaboration with Asger Kudahl, Matilde Böcher builds a musical echo chamber populated by racists, misogynists and other outcasts who have created a community in the darkest corners of the internet. 'LOL' is a gloomy mirror of our digital age - but also a moving operatic experience when award-winning Morten Grove Frandsen, with his wild voice, interprets the unhappy girl with 'The Fucking Ugly Face' or 'The Lamb', who longs to be slaughtered .

 

'LOL' is staged by Louise Beck and consists of ten solo songs that interweave posts from Reddit and other social media. Grove Frandsen's live performance mixes with recordings of his voice, with which new characters mutate - a goosebump-inducing mirroring of the endless games of the algorithms, which is given extra effect by Josefine Else Larsen's scenography, where the audience is surrounded by loudspeakers and hidden worlds in the recluse's archive.

 

Matilde Böcher has previously impressed with the opera 'Dryppende Stof', which could be experienced at the Copenhagen Opera Festival in 2021, and Louise Beck staged last year's opera festival success 'Den Sidste Olie', which has been nominated for Årets Reumert 2023.

LOL – Laughing Out Lonely
Ny soloopera af Matilde Böcher

Kælderen under Operaen
18.08.23 – 20.08.23

Internettets ensomme, ansigtsløse eksistenser får en stemme i denne nyskrevne soloopera – en stor stemme! Oplev kontratenor Morten Grove Frandsen spænde over ti væsensforskellige roller i et gennemført dramatisk univers, effektfuldt iscenesat i den dybe kælder under Operaen.
Matilde Böcher opbygger i tæt samarbejde med Asger Kudahl et musikalsk ekkokammer befolket af racister, kvindehadere og andre udstødte, som har skabt et fællesskab i internettets mørkeste afkroge. ‘LOL’ er et dystert spejl af vores digitale samtid – men også en bevægende operaoplevelse, når prisbelønnede Morten Grove Frandsen med sin vilde stemme fortolker den ulykkelige pige med ‘The Fucking Ugly Face’ eller ‘The Lamb’, som længes efter at blive slagtet.

 

‘LOL’ er iscenesat af Louise Beck og består af ti solosange, der sammenfletter opslag fra Reddit og andre sociale medier. Grove Frandsens livefremførsel blander sig med optagelser af hans stemme, hvormed nye karakterer muterer – en gåsehudsfremkaldende spejling af algoritmernes endeløse spil, der får ekstra effekt af Josefine Else Larsens scenografi, hvor publikum er omringet af højttalere og bortgemte verdener i eneboerens arkiv.

 

Matilde Böcher har tidligere imponeret med operaen ‘Dryppende Stof’, som kunne opleves på Copenhagen Opera Festival i 2021, og Louise Beck iscenesatte sidste års operafestivalssucces ’Den Sidste Olie’, der er nomineret til Årets Reumert 2023.
