MANUALEN & DE SYV DODSSYNDER is Now Playing at Det. KGL. Teater
Performances run through 4 June, 2022.
A unique world premiere awaits with the award-winning composer Louise Alenius' Manualen, which can be experienced in tandem with Kurt Weill's Die sieben Todsünden. Death plays the lead, embodied by soloists from the Royal Danish Opera, the Royal Danish Orchestra, the Royal Danish Opera Chorus, the Danish Dance Theatre and Danish singer Oh Land.
Alenius' Manualen (The Manual) is partially inspired by the debate regarding the convicted Danish physician Svend Lings' "suicide manual. The entire Opera House stage setting and auditorium are incorporated in Alenius' unique universe rendered as a giant body with Consciousness, Pain and Organs.
The leading role as Consciousness is performed by the Royal Danish Opera's Elisabeth Jansson, with Sofie Elkjær Jensen by her side in the role of Death. They are additionally surrounded by the various Organs that are subject to decisions taken by the Consciousness in its quest to quell pain forever.
