Cassandra

Cassandra – Flaka Haliti, I See a Face. Do You See a Face. #10, 2014

Sandra presents the results of her research on the melting polar ice caps in the form of stand-up comedy and hopes in this way to sensitize people to the alarming situation of our planet. While on the one hand applauded for her efforts, she is also constantly confronted with skeptical questions. Her warnings go unheard even in her own family, as is true of the mythical figure Cassandra who predicts the destruction of Troy in flames. The God Apollo grants her visionary powers, but because she refuses to give into his attempts to seduce her, he ensures that no one believes her prophecies.

In this opera, which premiered in Brussels in 2023, composer Bernard Foccroulle and librettist Matthew Jocelyn cleverly combine the figures of the ancient prophetess and the popular researcher in this stirring and touching opera. With Marie-Eve Signeyrole’s cinematic production, this very modern opera will be performed for the very first time in the German-speaking world.

Artists/Collaborators: Bernard Foccroulle (Komponist/in), Matthew Jocelyn (Autor/in)

Runtime: Thu, 19/06/2025 to Fri, 11/07/2025

Carmen

Opera

Bizet described his opera as an "operetta with a bad ending" - and rightly so, because what is unique about CARMEN is the mixture of romantic opera, realistic drama and Offenbach operetta. Ole Anders Tandberg's production tells the story in powerful images... moreabout: Carmen
