Orphée aux enfers Offenbach - Komische Oper Berlin

Shameless, funny and frivolous! In Barrie Kosky's production, which was frenetically celebrated at the 2019 Salzburg Festival - the first Offenbach operetta in the almost 100-year history of the festival - a plump mythical travesty meets a top-class ensemble that loves to play. Led by the inimitable Max Hopp as John Styx, who lends every figure on stage his speaking voice, Sydney Mancasola as Eurydice, Wolfgang Ablinger-Sperrhacke as Pluto and Peter Bording as Jupiter descend into a brightly colored, boyish, infernal underworld

Offenbach's initial situation is "slightly" different from the myth: Eurydice, the central figure, hates the music personified by her husband. And Orpheus himself is nothing more than a small, insipid music teacher from Thebes; Aristaeus, the divine seducer, is an acting honey dealer, and Jupiter, the "father of the gods", a horny goat, is constantly on the prowl. Shrouded in mystery, John Styx tells the story of entangled Orpheus and his annoyed Eurydice, of goddesses and gods in search of diversion, bored with everyday life in Olympus. Burning with curiosity about the beautiful kidnapped woman and the competition between Jupiter and Pluto for the favor of Eurydice, the illustrious company embarks on a ride into hell into the underworld, which culminates in what is probably the most famous can-can in music history. And Eurydice? - after all, it throws everybody in the dark ...
