Opera by György Kurtág

Opera in one act, text by the composer based on the play of the same name by Samuel Beckett

Musical direction: N.N.
Production, stage, costumes: Herbert Fritsch

Premiere: October, 16 2024

Four figures vegetate in a hostile, almost uninhabitable landscape: Clov and Hamm, Nagg and Nell. Hamm, in a wheelchair, is served by Clov, who can still walk a little. Hamm's parents Nell and Nagg have been living in (garbage) garbage cans since they lost their legs in a cycling accident. These four move between the continuous return of the unchangeable and the memory of "the past" by bullying and cajoling each other, conjuring and cursing, narrating and interrupting.
