Athens is at a standstill. The old King Theseus announces his abdication once again, but so far nothing has happened. His wife Phaedra is also growing impatient, eager to finally throw off the restrictive corset of the court. The designated heir to the throne, Demophon, is already awaiting his coronation. All that is missing is the planned marriage to Persea, which is supposed to seal the transfer of power. But Persea is no docile bride. Instead of resigning herself to her fate, she questions the rules – and ignites her forbidden love for Phaedra. A scandal that shakes the foundations of Athenian society. In a world ruled by rigid rules and the influence of the high priest, love can become a dangerous act of rebellion. What ensues is a struggle between social order and individual freedom.

Phaedra, in flames

Globe Coburg

The penniless Nemorino is madly in love with Adina. But she, clever and self-confident, disdains his clumsy advances. Instead, she promptly becomes engaged to the rich but complacent Captain Belcore. When the quack Dulcamara arrives in the village, Nemorino finds new hope: a love potion is supposed to turn his luck around! What worked for Tristan and Isolde can't hurt him after all. But the longed-for magic never appears. Desperately, he reaches for a double dose – as they say, more is better. And sure enough: suddenly, the entire village women are flocking to him! But is it really the potion that's to blame?
