In the organizer's words:
Der Freischütz in 5 dimensions after Carl Maria von Weber | For deaf and hearing audiences
Play version by Brigitta Gillessen and Rainer Mühlbach
Co-production with the Cologne Opera
On nights with a full moon, an ominous storm rages through the Wolf's Gorge - because this is where free balls are cast. These magic bullets always hit, even if you can't actually shoot them. Max urgently needs them to pass the test shooting and finally be recognized as a hunter. Otherwise he will remain a failure and won't be allowed to marry Agathe. But free bullets are only available in exchange for a diabolical pact.
Carl Maria von Weber's opera is reimagined here as music theater for deaf and hearing audiences. In this co-production by Oper Köln and COMEDIA Theater, deaf actors and hearing singers perform together on stage. Singing, sign language, visual music and smells merge into a barrier-free Gesamtkunstwerk.
