Opera performance by Florentina Holzinger with Paul Hindemith's opera Sancta Susanna (libretto: August Stramm), sacred works and new compositions
"A scandal? No, joy. Exuberant joy", said the Süddeutsche Zeitung after the Schwerin premiere of SANCTA. Florentina Holzinger's opera performance combines Paul Hindemith's opera act Sancta Susanna and elements of the Catholic liturgy to create a radical vision of the Holy Mass. With her performers, she embarks on spectacular physical borderline experiences and explores individual spirituality and faith, sexuality and pain, shame and liberation. Magic and religious miracles are reinterpreted in an ecstatic celebration of community and self-determination, in which Bach meets metal, the Weather Girls meet Rachmaninov - and naked nuns meet roller skates.
