At the Arena Sferisterio in Macerata Aterballetto dances Don Juan, the full evening signed by Johan Inger.
For the Macerata Opera Festival the company will dance with the live music played by FORM-Orchestra Filarmonica Marchigiana and directed by the baton of Manuel Coves.
The choreography stems from Inger’s desire to confront Don Juan, an ancient and still contemporary paradigmatic myth. The original play by Tirso de Molina, Molière, Bertold Brecht and the play by Suzanne Lilar are just some of the sources of inspiration: Inger and playwright Gregor Acuña-Pohl were able to consult twenty-five different texts inspired by the character.
In the creation we find all the characters in the story, from Donna Elvira to Donna Anna to Zerlina and Masetto. Don Juan can be considered a Kammerspiel, with its ability to emphasize nuances and emotions: and in the case of this creation, dance becomes a magnifying glass for the individual characters, and subtly but clearly reveals the inner worlds of the men and women on stage.
