Ophelia

In the German-speaking theater and film landscape, you can't get past his name: Lars Eidinger. No wonder Anna Prohaska chose the charismatic actor as the counterpart for her take on Shakespeare's fascinating Ophelia character. The ill-fated lover has inspired many composers to write music, particularly in the field of song composition. Anna Prohaska's selection of songs thus meets Shakespeare's original text. A multi-layered dialog unfolds between Ophelia and Hamlet - a dialog between love and suffering, hope and despair, reason and madness.
