Matthäus Passion 2727

In the organizer's words:

Inspired by Johann Sebastian Bach's St. Matthew Passion, Jewish choreographer Tamir Ginz and the Israeli Kamea Dance Company present a dance theater that combines religions and cultures. MATTHÄUS PASSION 2727 paints impressive pictures and tells the story of Christ's Passion from a completely new perspective. The production is supported by the Israeli Consulate General and the Cultural Department of the City of Munich.

BRIDGES BETWEEN PEOPLES AND RELIGIONS

Is humanity suffering? Is it confused, lamenting and waiting for the Messiah? And are we even prepared for the One? Against the background of his Jewish origins, Tamir Ginz examines the New Testament and builds bridges between nations and religions. His contemporary dance event MATTHÄUS PASSION 2727 illuminates the suffering of Jesus from a new perspective. The Kamea Dance Company dances Jesus' painful way of the cross, Judas' betrayal and the disciples' despair on stage in a visually stunning and moving way and inspires new thoughts.
