Münchens Kleinstes Opernhaus in der Pasinger Fabrik

Pasinger Fabrik

Munich's smallest opera house in the Pasinger Fabrik creates a world premiere with a new interpretation of the Orpheus legend: Inspired by three milestones in music history - Claudio Monteverdi's L'Orfeo (UA 1607 in Mantua), Christoph Willibald Gluck's Orfeo ed Euridice (UA 1762 in Vienna) and Jacques Offenbach's Orphée aux enfers (UA 1858 in Paris) - the musical director Andreas Pascal Heinzmann (idea), director Melanie Renz and librettist Paul Wiborny realize a new musical-dramaturgical combination of the popular operas in one piece.

This unprecedented music drama (instrumentation: AP Heinzmann and Jörg-Oliver Werner) is brought to the stage with eight singers and a ten-piece orchestra. They show the story of Orpheus and Eurydice, which has been told in different ways since Greek mythology, from a new perspective. The love of the protagonists is serious and deep, embedded in bizarre episodes and funny dialogues in the world of the gods. Stage design (Claudia Weinhart) and costumes (Johannes Geitl) reflect the universality of the material and at the same time ensure aesthetic extravagance.

In this way, the new Orpheus, embracing three centuries of operatic history, becomes a symbol for the entire opera house: for 25 years, Munich's smallest opera house has been offering opera for all feelings and has been very successful in welcoming a broad audience.
