Of Gods and Men
The theater production Of Gods and Men is about the poem `Die Theilung der Erde' by Friedrich von Schiller, the aria `Arianna a Naxos' by Joseph Haydn and everything in between.
The play, performed by students of the Conservatory of Enschede, conducted by Marien van Nieukerken and Anne Haenen, is a spectacular sequence of various musical highlights. Singers, piano players, actors whose roles overlap: the audience will have difficulty distinguishing exactly who does what.

Monday 9 May, 12:35 pm, Openluchttheater (in case of rain: Vrijhof Amphitheater), 3 euros (Union+ / CJP 1 euro).
