Hanover (dpa) -. A controversial “Freischütz” – Staging at the Staatsoper Hannover brings CDU local politicians in Rage. The youth learn important works no longer know only in a disguised form, or due to age restrictions, the council faction of the Christian Democrats revolted.
Hanover new Cultural Affairs Harald Härke must be upheld and ensure that the and of poets composer left behind treasures will not be taken “into level Loose and Any”.
The Dortmunder acting director Kay Voges staged Carl Maria von Weber “Der Freischütz” as a modern musical theater. He is very clear to the template. After the premiere on Saturday, there were boos, but also applause. The staging was by critics overwhelmingly positive discussed.
Because of video projections that are not suitable for children, the State Opera had temporarily raised the recommended age from 14 to 16 years. There were scenes that were reminiscent of the attacks in Paris, said State Opera spokesman Olaf Roth. Moreover, Nazi trannies and Pegida surfaced. “We felt it was too risky to confront younger students with it.”
Age recommendations on theaters are nothing unusual. The Berliner Volksbühne warned in May before the premiere of the play “The 120 Days of Sodom” with the words. “Not suitable for children under the age of 18″
In Hanover, the CDU takes umbrage that students, for the “Freischütz” is part of the curriculum, it is now due to age can not see. That was also a denigration of the commitment of teachers. While local politicians “symptomatic of the decline of a whole house,” see the Voges-staging as the Staatsoper remains calm. “We have a wide range and, for example, a 50 year old” Hansel and Gretel “production in the program,” said spokesman Roth. Not all directors brushed so vigorously against the grain as Kay Voges.
