Kon­zert zum Rosen­mon­tag DRA­MA!­SHAKE­SPEARE­&­QUEEN

Date & Time
Mon, Mar 3, 2025, 19:00
William Shakespeare, Freddie Mercury, and a viola find harmony in Daniel Finkernagel's "Drama! Shakespeare & Queen." Conceived for the 2023 Neuss Shakespeare Festival, the show features a fast-paced, humorous, and profound blend of recitation, song, and music. Queen's music is reimagined in a Baroque style by Matthias Kaufmann, resulting in a rocking "Viola Company" sound. "We Will Rock You" played with six violas and a lute promises a fun time, with a guest appearance by the fictional ancestor of Freddie Mercury, Frederico Mercurio.

Beforehand, writer Navid Kermani will read from his highly acclaimed, intelligent and poetic book “Unbelieving Amazement. On Christianity”. In it, the winner of the Peace Prize of the German Book Trade “immerses himself in the world of Christian imagery and marvels at a religion full of sacrifice and lamentation, love and miracles.”
