Der Barometermacher auf der Zauberinsel

MAGIC POSSE WITH SINGING

A Raimund on climate change! Yes, who could set up the world the way he likes it, who had enough gold and weapons and could travel as it pleased, in the end 'even make the weather' ... By chance the barometer maker Mercury ends up on the magic island and by chance He receives three magic gifts from the fairy Rosalinde, which she has to bestow on a person every hundred years: a staff that turns everything he touches into gold, a horn that an army calls as soon as it is blown, and a sash that will take you anywhere. Delighted by his sudden wealth, Quicksilver goes to the east side of the island, to the kingdom of Prince Tutu, to make his daughter Zoraide his wife.

“What do you need barometers / In this world even more? / Everyone likes the weather / As he likes it, therefore: / It points to beautiful with the rich / Stutzern points to wind / The sign is on rain / Where poor people are. "Raimund humorously asks the question about the man-made Welt - this is what author and director Bernd Liepold-Mosser takes as an opportunity to check the Austrian classic for current references. This also includes the music of the Zauberposse and thus the Austrian singer-songwriter Clara Luzia, who gives the Salzburg version new tones. The standard writes about their music: "Even if everything has already been said in pop, it has rarely sounded so good."

Karl Meisl was supposed to write a benefit piece for the actor Raimund in 1823 - but all theatrical minds seemed to be against the plan, so that Raimund (1790–1836) finally took up pen himself for the first time to provide himself and his colleagues with an effective play template. And so, inspired by the fairy tale “The Princess with the Long Nose”, the magic game was created, which eventually became a classic of Austrian theater literature.

With a wink of the eye, the Carinthian author, theater, opera and film director, exhibition organizer and artistic director Bernd Liepold-Mosser examines barometer making from today's perspective. Karla Fehlenberg presented first works at the Maxim Gorki Theater Berlin. She has been working as a freelance stage and costume designer since 2011.
