Suor Angelica / Gianni Schicchi
Deutsche Oper Berlin
Two one-act operas by Giacomo Puccini [1858 - 1924].
No other work reflects Puccini's search for new forms of musical theatre like his three-act trilogy IL TRITTICO, which premiered in 1918. In three pieces with different colours and temperatures, he once again brought to the stage what Italian opera could be in those years. In a condensed version, the second and third parts of the triptych now return to the stage of the Deutsche Oper in Karabulut's colourful production: SUOR ANGELICA, a piece with an all-female cast, is unique in opera history and revolves around questions of life ...
No other work reflects Puccini's search for new forms of musical theatre like his three-act trilogy IL TRITTICO, which premiered in 1918. In three pieces with different colours and temperatures, he once again brought to the stage what Italian opera could be in those years. In a condensed version, the second and third parts of the triptych now return to the stage of the Deutsche Oper in Karabulut's colourful production: SUOR ANGELICA, a piece with an all-female cast, is unique in opera history and revolves around questions of life and death and the possibilities in between. In her feminist interpretation, Karabulut explores the possibilities of (female) self-determination within a closed system. GIANNI SCHICCHI, on the other hand, follows the tradition of commedia dell'arte, placing humans at the centre as players and greedy deceivers. With her keen sense of timing and a captivating ensemble, Karabulut reveals the bizarre depths of a hypocritical family gathering once again around the deathbed of their patriarch.
About the production
The young, award-winning director Pınar Karabulut is known to Deutsche Oper Berlin audiences for her spectacular staging of Turnage’s modern Oedipus opera, GREEK, on the parking deck of the opera house. Karabulut was also invited to present a piece that she had directed at the Münchener Kammerspiele. With IL TRITTICO she now has a work in the main auditorium of the Deutsche Oper Berlin, staging three separate operas as theatre of the world, made up of different colours and temperatures on a rotating stage.
