Chicago Opera Theater (COT) presents a unique double-bill of one-act German language operas including Carl Orff's 'The Clever One' and Viktor Ullmann's 'The Emperor of Atlantis,' in four performances today, May 31- June 8, 2014 at the Merle Reskin Theatre of DePaul University (60 E. Balbo). 'The Emperor of Atlantis' ('Der Kaiser von Atlantis') by Viktor Ullmann and 'The Clever One' ('Die Kluge') by Carl Orff are two satires about oppression and dictatorship both written in 1943, but reflecting differing world views: 'Emperor' was composed during Ullman's imprisonment at the Theresienstadt concentration camp and 'Clever One' by an artist working under the Nazi regime's guidelines in Frankfurt, Germany. Both biting satires emphasize a sense of absurdity and ridiculousness while embodying the spirit of traditional German fairytales.
