GWS & THE MASTER AND MARGERITA
We are thrilled to report, that we now have little pieces of Get Well Soon on the big theater stage. Bulgakov's masterpiece "The Master and Margarita" was made into a spectacular music drama (do not call it a musical!) to be staged at the Schauspielhaus in Frankfurt. For those unfamiliar with the novel, a short lurid teaser: "The Master and Margarita" plays partly in the Moscow of the 20s and partly in Jerusalem at the time of Jesus' crucifixion. It contains a talking cat, and of course Satan himself. There are three decapitations, a crucifixion (obviously) and 5 admissions to the madhouse. And of course, a great romance with a tragic end.
It premiered on December 7 and here are the next dates @ SCHAUSPIEL FRANKFURT(GER)
