This extraordinary piece by Georg Kreisler for a pianist and an actress tells the story of the young Jewish actress Lola, who began her career when the National Socialists came to power. From her home in Austria, Vienna, she fled via Switzerland to the United States of America, where she became a successful singer. When she returned to Austria hopefully after the war, the new beginning there was anything but easy.
Since the premiere in Vienna in 1971, the story of Lola, in which Georg Kreisler also processed his own experiences, has lost none of its topicality. Kreisler's melancholic as well as comical, cheerful and sometimes also biting cabaret songs appeal to both the head and the heart. For Kreisler himself, “Lola Blau” is “the story of a helplessness. Lola passed out against the stubborn Swiss, rages passed out against the sex career in America, and in the end she passed out against the Austrian yesterday. All she wants is to dance and sing a little and make her audience happy. But she has to realize that there is no point in trying to catch a small, modest place in the sun. "

By the way: Before Brigitte Roth ends her decades of engagement as a singer and performer at Theater Nordhausen, she will meet our audience as Lola once again with her versatility and all facets of her ability.
