Fotos! GRAND HOTEL holt Berlin der goldenen Zwanziger nach Linz
by Iris Moebius - Jan 18, 2016
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.
