Mozart’s Don Giovanni
Mon 6 Jul 2015 – Sat 11 Jul 2015
Presented by The Darling Music Experience
Directed by Raimondo Viviano van Staden
Text adaptation by Alexander Kuchinka
A philandering, womanising leading man. A string of scorned female lovers. A loose-lipped servant. Murder, revenge and finally retribution. The infamous story of Don Giovanni is re-imagined as you’ve never seen it before.
Adapted to the South Africa of today, this unique production condenses Mozart’s mesmerising tragicomedy and combines it with storytelling in modern English and Afrikaans. With just seven soloists and a piano, this company, who have previously toured rural South Africa, emphasise that experiencing opera is possible anywhere, and accessible to everyone.
