ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
In a deserted courtroom, Don Giovanni, condemned as ‘guilty’, is at the mercy of his erstwhile victims’ grotesque episodes of punishment. In vain they search for his emotions, for his motivations or his empathy until a statutory tribunal of Justitia raises their voice to finally settle accounts with the myth of Don Giovanni.
The RING AWARD is the foremost international competition for stage direction and stage design in musical theatre. The competition is held in three-year intervals in Graz, Austria. It is organized in three stages, its unique feature being actual stage performances at the finals. In its nine editions so far 1565 participants from 53 countries have participated.
The RING AWARD enables and encourages a critical reflection of current trends and developments in musical theatre. It enables young artists to get international resonance for their ideas of what contemporary musical theatre should be like and provides a professional platform for planning and realizing actual performances.
