A truck overturns and empties its entire load of cows on the road. Locals approach the scene of the accident to secure the best cuts of meat in a brutal slaughter. Teenage girls Belinda and Mora witness this scene and attempt to rescue a calf, but Mora disappears without a trace. Over the course of the play, we discover a dense network of relationships and the structures of a social order that make young women disappear, silence them, torture them and finally kill them. Early in the play the stage is engulfed in an avalanche of black ashes, creating a messy field on which fights and slaughter take place. A sense of imminent danger is underscored by images of volcanic eruptions, rendering the skies black and the scenes deviod of any sense of hope. <img width="2500" height="1667" width_o="2500" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4dc5dc2a9f24e3a433c3d0d1536179c6af7585df044835cb3f08be0694170f32/22.jpg" data-mid="192518948" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4dc5dc2a9f24e3a433c3d0d1536179c6af7585df044835cb3f08be0694170f32/22.jpg" /> With&nbsp;Frida Lang, Elisabeth Nittka, Bernardo Arias Porras, Cathrine Dumont, Jelena Kuljić, Leoni Schulz, Michael Pietsch Directed by Florian Fischer Lighting Design by Max Kraußmüller Costume Design by Heloà Pizzi Mauro Dramaturgy by Felicitas Friedrich Associate Direction by Claudia Kaunzner Translation by Miriam Denge Photography by Judith Buss https://nikolai-k.com/Moby-Dick Tue, 03 Oct 2023 20:44:44 +0000 Nikolai Kuchin https://nikolai-k.com/Moby-Dick <img width="1111" height="1667" width_o="1111" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3b82dec6730eef2c6d8458c81d090a0cc76e8f1814abaf75b551a610e59958cd/MD_2.JPG" data-mid="232914934" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3b82dec6730eef2c6d8458c81d090a0cc76e8f1814abaf75b551a610e59958cd/MD_2.JPG" /> MOBY DICK Based on a novel by Herman MelvilleNymphenburg Palace Summer FestivalProduced by Ensemble Persona2024A red modular wharf-like structure, inspired by Yakov Chernikhovs drawings, fills the courtyard of Munich’s Nymphenburg Palace, constantly moving and reconfiguring as the hunt for the whale goes on Directed by Tobias MaehlerLighting Design by Matthias WanekCostume Design by Sarah SilbermannTechnical Direction by Christian KernWith Peter Kempkes, Nick-Robin Dietrich, Anna März, Sophia Lahme, Tom HospesMusic by Ondrej Zadak and Vera Drazic Photography by Bernt Haberland Production Management by Sandra Maehler <img width="2048" height="1366" width_o="2048" height_o="1366" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b7adf3ce7083570c51600fd77db3b16a25c2973717cb8f9180a46a389973a5b0/MD_3.jpg" data-mid="232915316" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b7adf3ce7083570c51600fd77db3b16a25c2973717cb8f9180a46a389973a5b0/MD_3.jpg" /> <img width="2500" height="1667" width_o="2500" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8f7ff1686462bc8732fd4d0b8ebf0356c34c339b2c378b58ae18444679563d53/MD_1_S.jpg" data-mid="232914952" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8f7ff1686462bc8732fd4d0b8ebf0356c34c339b2c378b58ae18444679563d53/MD_1_S.jpg" /> https://nikolai-k.com/Buhnenwelten Sun, 20 Mar 2022 23:23:19 +0000 Nikolai Kuchin https://nikolai-k.com/Buhnenwelten BÜHNENWELTEN An immersive exhibition of stage models and accompanying catalogue designKleist-Museum, Frankfurt (Oder)2022 Over 40 stage models from seven decades of theater history can be found in the collection of the Kleist-Museum.

Stage, Costume and Video DesignMusic by John Cage, Morton Feldman and Erik SatieChemnitz Opera2023One of Kandinsky’s lesser known works is a stage composition ,ein gelber Klang’ (,a yellow sound’), which loosely interprets creation of the earth. We reimagined the 1909 script, matching Kandinsky’s ideas with ‘abstract’ music of John Cage, Morton Feldman and Erik Satie. Adam and Eve are a K-pop couple, a Buddhist gardening society is planting the first flower. But visions of a potentially bleak future are there too - and a televised nuclear test explodes the creator’s apartment.The performances took place off-site in the monumental interiors of the Chemnitz Art Museum. The stage is a silver reflective amphitheater, an update on the classic Greek form. A permeable curtain cuts through the room, and mobile mirrors blend the reflections of the stage figures with the audience.

Throughout his life, Gynt is on a quest for his identity. But whether lying, cheating, or fantasizing, he fails to achieve his great goal. For this staging of Ibsen’s anti-hero play a mountain in two parts was constructed on the open-air stage in the courtyard of the Nymphenburg Palace in Munich. The stage draws a visual parallel between a typical wooden hut and a Norwegian mountain landcape, suggesting that in the quest for one’s identity and home one doesn’t always have to look too far. <img

Schönberg's "Die Glückliche Hand", Claudio Monteverdi's "L'Orfeo" and Steve Reich's "Piano Phase”Chemnitz Opera 2022 The desire to grasp the happiness of the moment with one's hands runs through both Schöneberg’s and Monteverdi’s operas. Three radically different musical pieces follow one another and show the cycles of human struggle between yearning, conquering, failing and starting anew. A new mountain was constructed for the show in the middle of Opera Chemnitz foyer. Balancing between a natural and industrial landscape, the set acts as a challenging playing field, which the hero needs to navigate. <img width="2500" height="1667" width_o="2500" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6b0eb57ae88f669bec50324f6bf866a0f9332b253c2308ecf946ec61751987c6/GA_02.jpg" data-mid="146142049" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6b0eb57ae88f669bec50324f6bf866a0f9332b253c2308ecf946ec61751987c6/GA_02.jpg" /> Directed by Veit-Jacob Walter Musical Direction by Anna SchollDesigned in collaboration with Tina HübnerPlayed by Till von Orlowsky and Thomas Kiechle Choir and musicians of Chemnitz Opera https://nikolai-k.com/DER-ELEFANT-IM-RAUM-1 Mon, 18 Mar 2024 23:55:12 +0000 Nikolai Kuchin https://nikolai-k.com/DER-ELEFANT-IM-RAUM-1 <img width="2500" height="1667" width_o="2500" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5abcbd008a505512ca51946ee78306e0bd6896162848843a7daf88e54bc13c72/03.jpeg" data-mid="207085964" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5abcbd008a505512ca51946ee78306e0bd6896162848843a7daf88e54bc13c72/03.jpeg" /> <img width="2500" height="1666" width_o="2500" height_o="1666" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/32246c859b0342878ede3fe47923935c18f5bbf1d8ebc046a55d2ece36eb8af9/02A.png" data-mid="207085971" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/32246c859b0342878ede3fe47923935c18f5bbf1d8ebc046a55d2ece36eb8af9/02A.png" /> <img width="2500" height="1668" width_o="2500" height_o="1668" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/488705c5cb197b1fa990004946bf4fb8c74b3c944e0b6f44bd75f8201a68d505/05.jpeg" data-mid="207085974" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/488705c5cb197b1fa990004946bf4fb8c74b3c944e0b6f44bd75f8201a68d505/05.jpeg" /> <img width="2500" height="1667" width_o="2500" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/aacc18674bdbeefb11f09b822363bdf1b8a1b508676f5a5f6a72c1caf3a80d08/06.png" data-mid="207085976" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/aacc18674bdbeefb11f09b822363bdf1b8a1b508676f5a5f6a72c1caf3a80d08/06.png" /> <img width="2500" height="1667" width_o="2500" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/54b092c808d6e2655aa2c1e468b911d6f1318988ae4367f7709ee9a365dbb831/05.png" data-mid="207086554" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/54b092c808d6e2655aa2c1e468b911d6f1318988ae4367f7709ee9a365dbb831/05.png" /> <img width="2500" height="1667" width_o="2500" height_o="1667" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d29f1afc5bbff88d96c50f7a82ec5ae98cdd73f8574407b23ee7c23967926e38/09.jpg" data-mid="207086570" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d29f1afc5bbff88d96c50f7a82ec5ae98cdd73f8574407b23ee7c23967926e38/09.jpg" /> DER ELEFANT IM RAUM A devised play about collective responsibility for the climate crisisStage, costume and video designTheater ChemnitzOnsite and online as VR version 2021There's a fat, pink elephant in the middle of the room. You somehow try to ignore it as best you can. Using the metaphor of the “elephant in space”, we approach one of the most pressing issues of our time: climate change. We all know the facts and figures - but what feelings does this future perspective trigger in us? How do we deal with these facts? Why do we tend to procastinate on this subject in particular? And is a pink plastic elephant even allowed on stage – well, evil is often very banal.
