Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: T.H.A.M.O.S.
Wherever they are, that’s where the action is. The Catalan theatre group La Fura dels Baus is staging T.H.A.M.O.S. at the Felsenreitschule Salzburg. The performance is based on Thamos, King in Egypt, with interlude music by Mozart for the heroic drama written by Tobias Philipp Freiherr von Gebler, supplemented by other compositions by Mozart and texts by Nikolaus Tesla, Antonin Artaud and Alicia Aza. The drama sheds light on the cultural changes of mankind in the 21st century and deals with the attempt to overcome the new forms of slavery. Through the unraveling of physical and artistic paradigms, the individual existence of the artistic being is linked with the holistic experiment of the “body to be collective”. Only in this way is art everything and everything is art.
T.H.A.M.O.S. – Based on Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Thamos, King in Egypt K. 345 in a version by Carlus Padrissa, with selected arias from The Magic Flute K. 620 and Zaide K 344.
