The piece 2013
Sehnsucht
Human desires
These are the focus of this year’s reflections. The new complete work by Hans Köhl and Shane Woodborne is staged by Caroline Richards with seven images: longing for God, longing for love, longing for bliss, longing for trust, longing for security, longing for the miracle and longing for peace. Mary, Joseph, Elisabeth and the Salzburg shepherd children embody the biblical events in a newly interpreted plot.
The oracle around the temple maiden Mary
Stands at the beginning of the biblical story. Images of a happy love, but also depressing experiences characterize the story. Mary (Simone Vierlinger) spends a happy time with her base Elisabeth (Ilse Grießenauer), both filled with the Holy Spirit. After a desperate search for shelter, Mary and Joseph (Bernhard Teufl) finally find a place to stay with the shepherds in the field. In a new shepherds’ play, the children will interact with the vocal ensemble and the choir.
The children of Abraham
are at the center of the current plot, which develops parallel to the biblical events. The Christian David (Johannes Perkmann), the Muslim Sara (Nevena Lukic) and the Jew Hannah (Alexandra Tichy) show how, as children of Abraham, they can carry the secret of their faith within themselves in mutual respect and understanding. An eventful story, a reflection of recent and contemporary Salzburg history with astonishing reflections on biblical events.
