罗密欧与朱丽叶

Two lovers who come from hostile families and whose love must fail because of the hostile environment. Jette Steckel approaches the "greatest love story of all time" from three sides: theatrically, musically with music by Anja Plaschg ("Soap & Skin") and Anton Spielmann ("1000 Robota") - sung and played by Friederike Bernhardt and Jan Plewka - and physically with a "mass movement" of 40 young people from Hamburg.

The framework for action sounds like a flat colportage: two lovers, who come from hostile families and are driven to suicide shortly after the wedding night by bad circumstances, bad coincidences and fantastic rescue operations. But the effect of the piece is limitless to this day. What Shakespeare made of the material is something like the nucleus of all romantic love stories, patterns and standards in art and in life. Til today.

The great, all-bursting love proves to be ready to die for love. It doesn't fail because of the hostile environment - it needs it. It's not about the good game, but about love, which has no chance and is therefore essential. This love resembles the mystical experience of the divine, the absolute. Lovers must die in the theater and in the opera. But their love lasts forever. - This is hardly possible in real life, where “amour fou” dies instead of lovers.
