Opium

A dance on the edge of a volcano, turmoil and ecstasy, sensuality and revolt, the light and shadow of the 1920s. With music by Kurt Weill, Erich W. Korngold, Gustav Mahler, Maurice Ravel, and others, Eckart Runge and Jacques Ammon immerse themselves in the music of a legendary era. Furthermore, with the world premiere of Sarvenaz Safari's new work, they forge a link to the present day.
