Die Urauffuhrung der Musicaladaption GRAND HOTEL am Broadway 1989 war mit uber 1000 Vorstellungen sensationell erfolgreich. Choreograf und Regisseur Tommy Tune war wesentlich an der ungewohnlichen Form des Musicals beteiligt. Szenen fließen ineinander und uberkreuzen sich wie die Lebenswege der Figuren; musikalisch wird das Stuck zusammengehalten durch eine symphonische Partitur, die sich an die Musik der Zeit anlehnt. Eleganz, Witz und Emotionalitat charakterisieren den Stil dieses Musicals, das keine Abfolge von Szene, Song, Tanznummer kennt, sondern ein fließendes Ganzes ist. Wir haben hier einige Fotos der Produktion, deren Premiere am vergangenen Samstag stattfand. Vorstellungen laufen vorerst noch bis April, sind aber derzeit komplett ausverkauft.
A Noise Within (ANW), the acclaimed classical repertory theatre company, continues its 2014-2015 REVOLUTIONary season with two new productions: The Threepenny Opera, Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill's groundbreaking theatrical work in Michael Feingold's translation, now through May 9 (press opening February 21) and William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, March 22 to May 8 (press opening March 28). While both plays spoke to the times in which they were first produced - Weimar Germany and Elizabethan England, respectively-they also speak to this season's theme of REVOLUTION, most especially from a socio-political point of view. Scroll down for a first look at THE THREEPENNY OPERA cast in action!
