Operetta "Orfeu als inferns" by Offenbach

Operetta "Orfeu als inferns" by Offenbach
The operetta "Orfeu als Inferns" (Orpheus in Hades) by Jacques Offenbach, coproduced by the Teatre Romea from Barcelona, Fundació Teatre Principal de Palma, Govern de les Illes Balears and Gran Teatre del Liceu de Barcelona, will reach Mallorca this weekend. From July 4 to 6 it will be performed in the patio of the Centre Cultural la Misericòrdia Palma and on July 8 in sa Màniga in Cala Millor.

This well known work by Offenbach has passed into posterity because of the extremely popular Can Can. But "Orfeu als Inferns" has other elements of interest, such as social protest that puts in evidence the differences of classes between the poorest and the richest people.

In this version by El Terrat, with musical direction by Antoni Parera Fons and stage direction by Joan Antoni Rechi, a number of Mallorcans are participating, such as Rafel Lladó, in charge of the stage and costumes, and the actors Eva Barceló, David Ordinas, Fanny Marí, Jaume Roca and Maia Planas. The cast also includes the Catalan actors Carles Canut, Mingo Ràfols and Boris Ruiz.
