OPERA2DAY and the New European Ensemble welcomed the audience to the anatomical theatre of the human mind. Through cinematic minimal music by composer Philip Glass and a story by Edgar Allan Poe, OPERA2DAY presented fantastic visions and horrifying delusions live at the theatre, boosted by a choreography by Scapino Ballet Rotterdam. The production focused on the Dutch première of Glass's compelling opera in two acts 'The Fall of the House of Usher', with a libretto by Arthur Yorinks based on Poe's story. The piece portrays the melancholiac pur sang Roderick Usher and his twin sister Madeline, who in this production is rendered by both a soprano and a female dancer. With Opera Melancholica, we immersed the spectators in Usher's melancholia and showed them all corners of the human mind.

In Opera Melancholica, thematic lines from previous OPERA2DAY productions came together. Hamlet (2018) was a psychological thriller. Dolhuys Kermis ('Madhouse Fair', 2013) brought a psychiatric institution to life on location, one of the five best performances of that year according to leading Dutch newspaper NRC. We already crossed the line of the unconscious, then unconsciously frivolous, in Dr. Miracle's last illusion (2017), according to the critic of the Volkskrant 'artistic fusion of a high level'.
