Clivia

THE STORY:

The musical cabaret artists Geschwister Pfister perform an operetta driven in highly enjoyable fashion by all manner of cliches – from the star of the silver screen in Greta Garbo mode to the intense revolution a la Che Guevara. A wild blend of characters, including an unlikely romantic couple, a dubious film producer, a reporter driven wild by love, dancing revolutionary Amazons and an eccentric Berlin inventor.
Big chorus numbers, smouldering duets for lovers, foot-tapping songs with jazz rhythms and fast-paced, humorous ensembles with a flavour of South American flair – all this reveals the entire spectrum of Dostal’s musical abilities.
