Der »RING« im Lichte des Deutschen Strafrechts

In the organizer's words:
After the overwhelming success of this event in previous years, we take a musical-satirical look at Wagner's work with the "Staatssstreichern", tenor Stephan Rügamer, who sings the part of "Mime" in the "Ring" production, and baritone Johannes Martin Kränzle, to be experienced in the role of "Alberich".

In an unsparing reappraisal of the "Ring," the fictional author and Gifhorn magistrate Ernst von Pidde gives each character in the tetralogy the punishment they deserve for their misdeeds. Whether murder or manslaughter, kidnapping or theft, arson or cruelty to animals: Wagner's gods, heroes and giants do not miss a single outrage. The "Staatsstreicher" have joined forces as a viola quartet in order to provide a sometimes tongue-in-cheek commentary on their instrument and the regular repertoire of "their" Staatsoper Unter den Linden. Thus they accompany Pidde's text, spoken by Stephan Rügamer and Johannes Martin Kränzle, with music from the "Ring", "Der fliegende Holländer", "Lohengrin", "Parsifal" but also "Der Rosenkavalier" and "Don Giovanni".
