theaterKIEL* | Die Liebe zu den drei Orangen

An opera, as crazy as child's play: Starting with the discussion about what form of theater we want, "Love for the Three Oranges" tells a fairy tale of the same name from Mediterranean countries. There is excitement in a kingdom because the heir to the throne and prince is afflicted with an incurable melancholy. His cousin Clarice and Prime Minister Léandre are already hoping for power, supported by the fairy Morgana. For the side of the prince, however, the magician Celio fights. The prince can only be cured with a liberating laugh, but all attempts at entertainment by the jester Truffaldino fail. Until coincidence and a mishap of Morgana achieve the impossible: the prince laughs! Morgana curses him out of revenge: he should be restless in love with three oranges and not be more satisfied,

First performed in Chicago in 1921, Prokofiev's "Love for the Three Oranges" is one of the most entertaining opera compositions of the 20th century due to its anarchic wit and gorgeous playful music. The abundance of ideas and unpredictable twists and turns that arise from the Commedia dell'arte model by Carlo Gozzi in the adaptation of the Russian theater avant-garde artist Vsevolod Meyerhold has inspired Prokofiev to write one of his most dazzling scores. With director Dirk Schmeding and set designer Pascal Seibicke, two of the most creative minds of the younger generation of theater are making their debut in Kiel with this undisguised commitment to the power of theater in what will hopefully be post-pandemic times.
