Prometheus/Egmont

This literary-musical evening as part of the Hamburger Theater Festival links two legendary stories of rebellion and the fight for freedom: the myth of Prometheus the Titan and the history of Count of Egmont of the Spanish Netherlands. The actor Sebastian Koch reads a collection of texts by Goethe, Shelley and Lord Byron, with interludes of music of Ludwig van Beethoven. On a central cube covered with canvas, the Viennese film collective Atzgerei sparks an iconoclasm through video projections, well suited to the music and texts.
