Amadeus

The rebel. His music. His downfall.

Amadeus

Amadeus, produced by the Theateralliantie and Het Nationale Theater in collaboration with OPERA2DAY, premiered on 15 June 2019 in the Royal Theatre of The Hague

De Theateralliantie, Het Nationale Theater and OPERA2DAY presented Amadeus, a new musical theatre version of Peter Shaffer's famous play about Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. When Mozart appears at the court of the Emperor as a young and unconventional artist, he is determined to leave a great impression. He succeeds brilliantly. He enchants everyone with his music that sparkles with genius. Court composer Antonio Salieri is bewildered: God must have generously given Mozart the musical inspiration he himself is looking for in vain. Consumed by jealousy, he fights against Mozart, against music and ultimately against his faith in God.

This co-production is directed by Theu Boermans with Sander Plukaard in the role of Mozart and Mark Rietman as Salieri. In addition to the 9 cast members, 40 choir members and a live orchestra appear on stage in an impressive scenography by Bernhard Hammer (Soldaat van Oranje). Hernán Schvartzman, musical director of OPERA2DAY, was responsible for the music in this production. Daniël Hamburger arranged Mozart's compositions and Lucie Chartin excelled as a soprano. This trio also participated in OPERA2DAY's productions of Hamlet and Dr. Miracle's last illusion.

Pressquotes: "What a party!"

'A perfect example of subsidized art for a wide audience', stated the Volkskrant in their headline. The Telegraaf awarded the production the maximum of five stars and praised the 'strong contribution of the specially composed orchestra'. The NRC thought the most beautiful scenes those 'in which Mozart and music play the leading role, such as the graceful dance scene from Le Nozze di Figaro or the furious Queen of the Night from Die Zauberflöte, beautifully sung by soprano Lucia Chartin'. Trouw newspaper also awarded five stars: 'The insanely clever acting, Mozart's music, the richly varied staging are merciless and of a haunting beauty'. Den Haag Centraal praised OPERA2DAY's contribution: 'With a live orchestra of fifteen musicians and the intoxicating soprano Lucie Chartin from co-producer OPERA2DAY […] this is a performance you don't want to miss: entertaining, intelligent, exciting and full of music – a golden performance'.  Magazine Scènes : 'A lively, intelligent performance, successful on all levels, in which the love for beautiful music continuously splashes into the audience. What a party!'
