Zyklus »Slawische Opern«
Ticket information
Ein Querschnitt durch das slawische Repertoire – und eine breite Palette an unterschiedlichen Erzählformen und Stilen: das tragische Schicksal einer Meerjungfrau, die erfrischend-mitreißende Liebesgeschichte in einem böhmischen Dorf, das große Beziehungsdrama der Liebe zur falschen Zeit, ein vielschichtiges Spätwerk rund um eine blinde Prinzessin und die geradezu science-fictionhaft anmutende Story eines geheimnisvollen Rezepts, das ewiges Leben verspricht.
