Santiago Blaum
Nietzsche Contra Wagner Nueva Germania Opera Tropical
- Theatre
- Music
ca. 90 min
More than 100 years ago, the political agitator Bernhard Förster and Friedrich Nietzsche’s sister Elisabeth wanted to realize the utopia of a “pure race” in the jungles of Paraguay. The “Nueva Germania” that they planned is resuscitated on stage as a non-place, as a dream, and as a TV show. Sounds from Richard Wagner are mixed with pop music. This is how Santiago Blaum continues his research on the role of the opera genre for contemporary theater.
Production: Santiago Blaum. Co-production: HAU Hebbel am Ufer (Berlin), FFT Düsseldorf und Hellerau – Europäisches Zentrum der Künste (Dresden). Supported by Hauptstadtkulturfonds.
