KunstFestSpiele Herrenhausen: Metamorphosis of a Living Room
After its world premiere at the Wiener Festwochen 2023 the musicians of Klangforum Wien join the performance of the production at the KunstFestSpiele Herrenhausen.
As recently with the meta-opera Amopera, the ensemble explores new forms of musical theater. Directed by Toshiki Okada, and together with the performers of his company chelfitsch, Klangforum Wien brings Dai Fujikura’s composition to the stage. The spoken language of theater and the music are placed in a new relationship. Both levels of expression enter a dialogue and invent a new vocabulary of musical theater.
At the center of the story is a family about to lose their apartment. In this already turbulent situation, an undefined power enters the situation and takes over their fate.
