BACH AT LEIPZIG by Itamar Moses
March 27-April 13
Funny men in wigs! Bach at Leipzig brims over with comedy and mayhem!
Leipzig, Germany, 1722: Johann Kuhnau, revered organist of the Thomaskirche, suddenly dies, leaving his post vacant. In order to fill the position, the city council invites a small number of musicians to audition for the appointment.
Bach at Leipzig imagines with uncommon intelligence and wit how seven talented egomaniacs resorted to bribery, blackmail, and betrayal in an attempt to secure the most coveted musical post in all of Europe.
Bach at Leipzig is what might result if Tom Stoppard and Groucho Marx were to collaborate on a play.
