Over dit album
METAMORPHOSIS
Naar de novelle Die Verwandlung (De gedaanteverwisseling) van Tsjech Franz Kafka brengt Arthur Pita The Metamorphosis: een danstheater versie van deze surrealistische nachtmerrie. Het verhaal gaat over de handelsreiziger Gregor Samsa die op een dag wakker wordt en zichzelf veranderd vindt in een menselijk insect. Hoe reageren hij, zijn ouders en zijn zusje op deze nieuwe situatie? Edward Watson speelt op voortreffelijke wijze de hoofdrol in dit absurdistische stuk. Componist Frank Moon speelt zelf live de muziek en zorgt voor indringende en soms luchtige momenten. Door de perfecte afstemming van licht, decor, spel en muzikale ondersteuning is het geheel een indrukwekkend en aangrijpend schouwspel.

‘It’s unique and absurd … timeless and universal.’ So choreographer and director Arthur Pita describes Kafka’s powerful novella The Metamorphosis, which has inspired this award-winning production for The Royal Ballet. Principal dancer Edward Watson won critical acclaim for his ‘repellently brilliant’ (The Independent) portrayal of Gregor Samsa’s transformation into an insect, while the supporting cast vividly convey the conflicting reactions of Gregor’s family. Frank Moon’s dramatic score – performed live by the composer himself – and Simon Daw’s austere designs complement this disturbing and compelling reinterpretation of Kafka’s masterpiece.
Ballet based on Kafka's novella.
Created especially for Royal Ballet Principal Edward Watson - who gives a virtuoso performance.
Premiered in the Royal Opera House's Linbury Studio Theatre.
Highly atmospheric score from Frank Moon for this claustrophobic drama.
Extra features: Introduction to The Metamorphosis, Bringing The Metamorphosis to Life and a Cast gallery.
Running time: 90 minutes
Subtitles N/A
Sound format: 2.0LPCM + 5.1(5.0) DTS
