IT’S SCHILLER! is a dance theatre performance based on the drama 'Die Maltheser. Tragödie' by Friedrich Schiller.
Five dancers and the vocal ensemble amarcord, with their baroque a cappella singing, perform with live electronic music and new compositions by Matthias Engelke. The spectator finds his way into the atmosphere of the Ottoman expansion in the Mediterranean in the 16th century, experiencing the issue of resilience of a European congregation via sound and dance.
