The opera Antikrist by Danish composer Rued Langgaard seemed totally out of its time when it was written 100 years ago. Gay director Ersan Mondtag gives this strange, unclassifiable work topicality and a certain dose of queerness.
R: Ersan Mondtag
A good 100 years ago, in the then still independent area of Charlottenburg, the Deutsche Oper was founded in the name of modern music theater, offering full visibility of the stage from every seat. The opera house stayed true to this tradition of citizenry when Fritz Bornemann's new building opened in 1961.
