Midsummer Fill Conterns and Game Surface in the comrades
“A Swedish Midsummer Night’s Dream” in contrast
“Spader Lady”, comrades on the theater galeasen
Summer Theater is often Connected to a few risks, and recently I stated that it will only be on the weather how good the summer theater season of Stockholm will be. I have to take that back now, after I have seen the free groups the respective summer premieres of the and the comrades, respectively. Because not only the practical advantage of these two that play indoors, they supplement the Park Theater program with that honor.
Containing certainly his tourist-adapted “a Swedish Midsummer Night’s Dream” outdoors, with a small frog ring dance together with the audience in the garden of Björn. But if it were rainy and cold on the day you have a ticket, it will only reinforce the incredibly authentic midsummer theme with which these fresh buns have been released.
In the stage On Östgötagatan, a typical midsummer long table is up, flanked by birches, outside and Sweden. Here the actors guides Jenny JensenThe Janna Granström And Nils Närman Svensson His audience through the Swedish of traditions in washable Sweden. So yes, it’s great to include foreign tourists in this version – with the risk that they might need some therapy afterwards to melt their hard awakening from the illusion of Swedish summer.
On the other hand, the public is not only invited to herring, potatoes and snaps (“Skåne Akvavit is really good, it has bum In it! “) But also, so to speak, the back of the Swedish Midsummer -Mythe. After a number of singing numbers with internationalized snapshots and the drinking cabin” in Comes Father “, and moreover the party is fully degenerated according to Put.
So before the Big Backfilling Remedy Rolls during the day after, we can cross most of the Midsummer Bingo Tray: cheating such as potato-on-spoon, super-proof Swedish Strawberry Cake, Bellman Stories, Beer of the Magical Football Summer. Here, moreover, with a spicy taste of the pursvenska export Success Fäbodjäntan. Anyone who dares can taste a piece of wasteland afterwards …
Even on the theater galeasen The public is invited to a kind of “those who go for a lot of” morality, but here it applies to money instead of spirits. At SkeepPsholmen, the free opera company is the comrades of temporary summer guests. Well earned, they have exactly The Opera Award from Svenska Dagbladet assignedAmong other things, because of its courageous and unconventional repertoire selection, but this year’s summer production is a more classic work than normal.
Now Tchaikovsky’s “Spader Dam” is really not a picnic in the green, but the tragedy is of a caliber other than the person we have served opposite. In the opera from 1890, which is based on a short story of PushkinThe young officer Herman is overthrown in ruin because of his gambling abuse and hunting status and fast coal.
His habit of Trouw has compressed the comrades these three -ECTER on a reduced room game for four singers in 80 minutes. The staging led by Anna Holter In musical arrangements of Loke Risberg and under the musical leadership of Karin Haglund (with the piano) However, it has not shrunk in any way. In a scenography consisting of gambling film screen pathers (where some filmed background scenes are displayed) with light soot patination, the singers and the two musicians play their cards just right, delicious goth -clad in varnish, leather and black lace.
Fredrik Hagerberg Doing Entrance and sorti – in only underwear in the role of Herman. As his obsession increases with happiness and success, he gets more and more characteristics of Breddad Rock Star. Both supervision and destructivity do not make me respond to think about Pete Doherty, although the scope of Hagerberg is of course a completely different cut. Even more rock’n’roll appears Helgi Reynissons Devil’s Kajal -Make -up form, albeit more glamorous elegant (think of the singer in Moonsekin), in the dual role such as Jeletsky and Tomsky. But the strongest actually shines the women of the ensemble. The soprano Synne Vinje Just like Liza in lacquer corset and lace socks, with her voice, it seems to be able to blow the skull of everyone, so it’s no wonder Herman fell in love and crazy in her. The veteran Marianne Eklöf Törnblom In turn, with a witch’s pregnancy and pond in the mezzorollen such as the countess, ie Spader Dam, aka gambling queen La Vénus Moscovite.
It looks good And in general, well, sleek and accessible Swedish short version of the Tchaikovsky opera that offer the comrades, although this time we do not get a definitive recipe for how real happiness is best achieved. Just a confirmation of how the desperate hunt for money and status usually leads to the opposite.
As well as another certificate that they are the free groups for the most interesting performing arts, even summer time.
