演出简介 'Wallenberg'

The widely awarded production of the contemporary Opera "Wallenberg" is also in this season performed at the Estonian National Opera.

Wallenberg is the antifascist opera by the widely known Estonian composer Erkki-Sven Tüür. The opera was commissioned by Theatre Dortmund in 2001. The contemporary opera in the fantastic vision of the world renowned stage director Dmitri Bertman and the bold artist Ene-Liis Semper, tells the story of the Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg, who saved 100 000 Jews from German concentration camps.The scandalous stagings of Dmitri Bertman have created lively debates.

"I don´t know whom of these three [Dmitri Bertman, Ene-Liis Semper, Neeme Kuningas] should we first and foremost "blame" for the total success of the premiere, but the performance was perfect to the smallest detail – due to the powerful imagery, courageous staging and playful visual aesthetics, all the 19 scenes melted into one whole within the two different acts. It is a find in the field of staging that balances on the fragile border of tackiness and utter ingeniousness and beats the Batman from the Dortmund 2001 performance. The Wallenberg of Erkki-Sven Tüür is a complete and diverse artistic success, a contemporary theatre in all its aspects without a compromise: it is playful, provocative, has many layers, is open to interpretation, does not say the evident..."
