A few words about the musical performance
Mendelssohn’s best-known tune, “The Marriage Bill,” was written for “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” Shakespeare’s ode to love.
Fairies, elves, a forest full of surprises, two couples hunting and being hunted, a traveling troupe, a royal wedding.
A divine symphonic music narrates the affair, capturing the sound of rustling leaves, the lullabies of fairies, the neighing of a donkey, transformation, the truth of the moment and the other truth of fantasy.
The actors become the speaking instruments of the orchestra, and the chorus, the fairytale voice of the forest.
The pre-sale has already started. Ticket prices: 8-14 euros.
