De Nederlandse Reisopera presenteert, samen met Club Guy & Roni en het Noord Nederlands Orkest, de opera Waiting for the Barbarians - een enorme theatrale explosie waarbij zangers, dansers en een gigantisch orkest dit late meesterwerk van de belangrijkste levende klassieke componist, Philip Glass, uitvoeren als aftrap voor de internationale viering van 'Glass at 90'.

Programme

Philip Glass Waiting for the Barbarians

Gebaseerd op de met een Nobelprijs bekroonde roman van J.M. Coetzee, focust Waiting for the Barbarians zich op het essentiële thema van onze tijd: 'wij' en 'zij'. Met o.a. Nora Monsecour en de dansers van Poetics Disaster (Club Guy & Roni), het koor van Consensus Vocalis en een internationale topcast, waaronder de Zweedse ster-mezzosopraan Charlotte Hellekant en de Nederlandse sopraan Lilian Farahani, belooft dit overrompelende theaterervaring te worden die nog lang zal beklijven.
