Information
The celebrated Burgtheater actor and “Nestroy” award winner Max Simonischek with Chekhov’s best-known story from 1899 about the transformative power of intimate love and the people caught between social constraints and passion:
The ageing banker Gurov, who is tired of his marriage, meets the young, adventurous Anna during a stay at a spa. In the decadent summer atmosphere of Yalta, Gurov begins an affair with her. What began as a harmless vacation flirtation develops into a serious love affair. …
Simone Kopmajer, Austria’s jazz figurehead, plays and sings new arrangements of great works by contemporary Chekhov composers such as Franz Liszt, Tchaikovsky, Alexander Borodin, Georg Gershwin and others, some with new lyrics – exciting new interpretations transformed into jazz.
