Director

One of the greatest icons of pop culture was Freddie Mercury. As co-founder of Queen, he captivated crowds. But even in his most stadium-worthy pose, he revealed an artist whose hunger for life struck an existential nerve. His art portrayed a human being's struggle for intoxication and fulfillment, conscious of the depths of life, of fall and transience. Mercury never shied away from asking the big questions about life and death.

 

Ana Yoffe will explore precisely these questions in her evening, exploring the person of Freddie Mercury and perhaps even transforming herself into him. When one senses death, how intensely does one burn for life? How unfairly does fate treat one, and when can one find peace? Mercury transformed his yearning into magnificent music. Ana Yoffe will interpret these songs, combining them with lyrics, fragments, perhaps even just snatches of thought on life's big questions.

One of the greatest icons of pop culture was Freddie Mercury. As co-founder of "Queen," he thrilled the masses. But even in the biggest pose suitable for a stadium, he revealed an artist whose hunger for life struck an existential nerve. His art showed a person's struggle for intoxication and fulfillment in the knowledge of the abysses, of fall and transience. Mercury never shied away from asking the big questions about life and death.

VALENTIN FINDLING brings the magic of Freddie Mercury to México! "The Music of Queen Live" is far more than a tribute: VALENTIN FINDLING and his live band present a passionate homage to one of the greatest rock bands in history.
