J. Haydn
A group of young artists are celebrating backstage after a performance and decide to play a game on the abandoned stage. Quickly, the lines between fantasy and reality begin to blur: the characters demand tribute from the performers and soon, no one knows where this journey will lead.
Based on Haydn’s La Fedeltà Premiata written in 1781, this production celebrates the joy of deliberate confusion. The outlandish monster-pastoral-play of mistaken identity captures the heart-wrenching conflicts of its performers. Time and time again, it creates little islands outside of logic and reason, all the while underscoring the constant tricks, magic, and illusions of the theatre. In the end, the couples reunite for the grand finale, complete with thwarted human sacrifice and the cameo appearance of a goddess.
