EIGHT:MINUTES - Musical meets classical music

The content on this page was translated automatically.

With EIGHT:MINUTES, the Hamburg University of Music and Drama and the Stage School Hamburg present an extraordinary musical theater project at the First Stage Theater.
This unique co-production focuses on five short musical theater pieces with new works composed especially for the project, which are dramaturgically mirrored with selected musical originals - an experimental field for new forms of musical theater. Students of the HfMT and the Stage School Hamburg explore the boundaries and transitions between musical, classical, jazz and performance. Each scene is musically, scenically and aesthetically independent, but unites within a common thematic framework: a foray through Hamburg as material, myth and resonance space from the perspective of young artists.

A cooperation that builds bridges - between genres, generations and institutions.
Under the direction of an interdisciplinary creative team, over 25 artists from the fields of composition, direction, dramaturgy, dance, singing, jazz and acting are involved. EIGHT:MINUTES is both an encounter and a bridge-builder - between musical and performance, between education and the professional stage, between institutions and generations.
