Ludwig II. - Die volle Wahrheit
4 D, 9 H, Musiker
UA: 31.12.1998 · Münchner Kammerspiele · Directed by: Georg Ringsgwandl
After three thousand pages of source studies I became depressed—because the historical reality is so groundless, stupid, and degenerate. Ludwig - a paragon of decadence. That is why he is liberated here from all melancholy, romanticism, Wagnerianism, and appears instead as a figure in a frivolity fair. (Georg Ringsgwandl)
"This opus is a special lese-majesty, a premiere of almost overflowing wit, and a mystification of the fairy-tale king of the most satirical kind." (Main-Echo)
