Premiere of the Moorkatoper: murder, revenge and Low German passion!

Schwerin, Deutschland - An exciting cultural Highlight took place last Saturday in the Schwerin-Mueß open-air museum. Here the musical "de Moorkatenoper" celebrated its highly expected premiere. This staging is not only another piece of the North German Theater Landscape, but a real piece of cultural asset, which has its roots in the "Grattleroper", which was premiered in 1978 at the Iberl stage in Munich. Originally in High German, the opera has found its place on the Low German stages in recent decades, especially at the Hamburg Ohnsorg Theater, where it was a huge success. Over 500 sold -out performances at the Bavarian Volkstheater speak a clear language about the popularity of this performance. According to the Nordkurier, the premiere found its way back to the open -air museum and thus offers a great experience in a historical ambience.

"de Moorkatenoper" plays in the impending mood of the Kitchen of the Niemöller family, where the tragedy begins: Hans, the family's son, is found dead while poaching. The official version of his death as an accident cannot convince the resolute Maleeen Niemöller. Instead of submitting to the flimsy explanations of the forest administrator and the game dealer, she decides to fight for justice on her own. Together with the lively Landstreicher Paschinski, her brother's best friend, she ventures into an adventure that not only turns her own life, but also that of her entire family upside down. This exciting action, which revolves around topics such as revenge and truth, is impressively brought onto the stage under the direction of Dirk Audehm.

a musical masterpiece

The music, a mix of swing, klezmer, jazz and pop ballad, leads the audience through the emotional roller coaster ride of the performance. With his musical arrangement, Martin Schelhaas ensures that the audience can experience not only the dramatic but also the humorous facets of history. The costumes, designed by Christine Jacob, transport the audience directly into the life of the 1950s and give the performance a special authenticity.

It is also gratifying for visitors to know that there will be several other performances. On the coming days, especially on 22nd and 26th to 29th June and in July, there is the opportunity to immerse yourself in this exciting history. Tickets are available on the central card phone on 0385 53 00-123. The pre -sale on the M*Halle starts a month before the first performances and offers broad availability for all theater fans.

part of the Low German tradition

The performance of "De Moorkatenoper" in Schwerin is part of a new trend in the Low German theater. This form of theater is enjoying a million viewers in northern Germany and is increasingly also valued across the borders of the region. UNESCO even included the Low German Theater in 2014 in the list of intangible cultural heritage, which underlines the cultural importance of these pieces. According to lampdeutsch.net , the living transfer of such traditions is of great importance and is supported by numerous amateur play groups in northern Germany.

whether for theater lovers or those interested in culture - the "de Moorkatoper" is an absolute must for everyone who wants to immerse themselves in the world of the Low German theater. Experience excitement, humor and a great musical performance in an impressive historical framework.
