Phœnix Festival: Isa - Hommage an eine vergessene Künstlerin

ISA: Homage to a forgotten artist - a music theater project.

Isa Vermehren - cabaret artist, actress, singer, nun and principal of the Sophie Barat School in Hamburg. An unusual woman who gave strength and comfort to many people during the National Socialist era with her cheeky tongue, her rousing singing and her humanity. The pupils of the Sophie Barat School approach Isa Vermehren in a musical-theatrical way and ask what significance the work of this extraordinary artist can have for us today.

Director: Alexander Radulescu
Collaboration in rehearsals: Birgit Müller
Musical direction: Patrick Preyss

Followed by a get-together: time for discussions, refreshments and inspiration (including from Hamburg author Cornelia Franz and her book "Swing high" and saxophonist Theresa Sophie Kanitz)

Organized by: Kulturforum21der Schulen im Erzbistum Hamburg in cooperation with einhornkollektiv. Agency for cultural transformation
