20 North Wacker Dr, Chicago, IL 60606
Closed November 21, 2015
Directed by the legendary Sir David McVicar.
Poverty, pain and passion lead the poor Wozzeck down a perilous path of destruction in Alban Berg's uncompromising opera. Often regarded as a masterpiece of the 20th Century, Wozzeck shows us the sharp, transformative power of exploitation and brutality, told with virtuosity by a monumentally emotional score.
The esteemed Sir David McVicar returns to the Lyric Opera to direct this new procution of Berg's tale of the doomed soldier, no doubt creating a vicceral experience in the process.
Contsantly taunted by his peers and superioers , the poverty stricken solider Wozzeck is unable even to find solace in his home life, with partner Maire looking for consolation elsewhere and their son an outcast for being illegitamate. Ragew and aniexty burns through him, possibly at the fault of a experimental doctor, but the psychosis grows into violent insanity in this sad tome of hardship and revenge, proving that some things are not always worth forgiveness.
Opening night: 1 November 2015
Sung in German with English titles.
