VICTORY OVER THE SUN

In a two-year collaboration with the Musiktheater im Revier and the Ringlokschuppen Ruhr, the artist collective KGI dedicates itself to one of the most sensational works in opera history: "Victory over the Sun", which premiered in 1913, was one of the greatest theatrical scandals and only had two performances. Amateur actors, surreal lyrics, sounds, lighting effects, movements and Cubist design broke all the rules that had previously applied in musical theatre. The fragments of this historical synthesis of the arts give rise to a new utopia of opera.
