Erzählperformance von Meike Rötzer: “Orlando” nach Virginia Wolf mit Geigerin Charlotte Balle

In the organizer's words:

"Too smart'n'slender for specific gender?"

Virginia Woolf's "Orlando" ghosts through four centuries. Sometimes as a man, sometimes as a woman, he/she mixes up historical gender roles and yet is always close to the old Shakespeare. Orlando's epic journey through time and around the world takes us on a furious rollercoaster ride of emotions. As wild as the capers and as amusing as the hook shots may be, they are unshakeably imbued with genuine British humor. Orlando is pure seduction.

Actress Meike Rötzer has been running the storybook publishing house for three years - world literature as an audio download.

Great novels and dramas freely narrated: Theater for the ear, an entertaining key to world literature and a message to cultural memory before writing.

With musical accompaniment by violinist Charlotte Balle.

She has played at the Hamburg State Opera and with the Stuttgart Philharmonic Orchestra. She is a violinist in the Ladystrings string quartet. As a solo partner of Jon Lord (Deep Purple), as well as with pop music greats, she has performed worldwide. She has been director of the Paul Hindemith Neukölln music school since June 2023.
