Ein Maskenball by Verdi, Mi. 16 Jan. 2013, Ab (2013/2013), Unter der Regie von Alex Ollé, Dirigat Andrea Molino

Verdi's first stage direction proposed by Àlex Ollé takes place in the near future. Inspired by the work 1984 by George Orwell, we can imagine the worst of visions. The current economic crisis has caused the collapse of the society we knew until now. Power has closed in on itself, in a new form of absolutism or refounded totalitarianism, under the apparent mask of a democratic system. The power, bureaucrats, financiers or politicians who have survived the crisis will live hidden from the rest. Around, like shadows, the Indignados.
