West Side Story
MUSICAL Based on a concept by Jerome Robbins. Script by Arthur Laurents, music by Leonard Bernstein. Song lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Directed by Stina Ancker. Performed in Swedish.
Premiere 17 September 2011.
West Side Story is called ”the best musical in the world”. It is about the two rival gangs, the Jets and the Sharks, and the forbidden love of Tony and Maria. The classic hit songs were written by Leonard Bernstein. In an ingenious way, the big dance numbers move the plot forward. Our production is directed by Stina Ancker, who has taken the timelessness of the drama into consideration. Nick Davies and Finn Rosengren are directing. In the principal parts, we will see the new promising talents, Sofie Asplund and Bruno Mitsogiannis

Sleeping Beauty
DANCE WORK by Mats Ek. Music by Pyotr Tchaikovsky.
Revival on 7 December 2011.
When Sweden's most internationally in demand choreographer took on Sleeping Beauty, he created a modern classic. Mats Ek's radical interpretation of Sleeping Beauty, in which a rebellious young girl gets pricked by a syringe and steps into a drug haze, leaves no one untouched. Fairy tale, blackness and humour are combined in Ek's intensive physical choreography and Peder Freij's imaginative stage design and costumes. Tchaikovsky's classic Sleeping Beauty music is played live by the the Göteborg Opera's Orchestra.

Die Zauberflöte
OPERA Lyrical drama in two acts by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Directed and Swedish translation by Rikard Bergqvist.
Revival on 10 May 2012.
Die Zauberflöte is a dizzying musical tale in which Tamino and his beloved Pamina battle to find one another. Pamina has been abducted by the great Sarastro, who wants to save Pamina from her mother's destructive influence on her. The mother, who is called the Queen of the Night, engages the young Tamino to fetch her daughter back again. Rikard Bergqvist's successful production had its premiere in the autumn of 2009 and played to full houses. Now this much-praised production is back again. In the roles, we see, among others, Markus Schwartz as Papageno and Karolina Andersson as the Queen of the Night.
