HERNÁDI PONT.

What happens when the heroes of Mozart’s opera are portrayed on stage not by singers, but by finely crafted marionette figures? The Salzburg Marionette Theatre’s production offers a barely one-hour version of this iconic piece from the opera repertoire: while preserving its essential musical and dramatic pillars, it guides the audience through Tamino, Pamina, and Papageno’s adventures in a more accessible, dense form.

A folyamatos túlterheltség, a nyugalom iránti reménytelen vágy és az ebből fakadó állandó feszültség mindannyiunk számára ismerős élmény – ám kevesen tudják olyan pontosan formába önteni mindezt, mint Gyuris Bence.

There can hardly be imagined in our time a work that conveys a more important message to humanity, as it debates the possible fate of the earth, about threats to the natural environment than Götterdämmerung does. Perhaps there is still time for us to return the ring to the Rhinemaidens.
