Театр Колон, ''Hagith''

Буэнос-Айрес

The contrast between ancient and modern is the theme of the idea of the mise en scène and of its scenographical representation.The large windowed wall with the functionalist style divides the frontal world of the old King, sick and dying, and that of the young Prince, visible through the windows and illustrated by projections on a large 22 x 16 m Экран обратной проекции realized with the film RAR - Arizona.The projections show the urban landscape of Buenos Aires revised into a collage that evokes the dark expressionist skyline of Метрополис - the modern world of the Prince is in fact placed in the Years 1920s of the Twentieth Century, those of the famous film by Фриц Ланг.

The old King spends his last days in a claustrophobic alcove that is filled with objects in a confusion of styles that puts the epoch in a timeless past.
The contrast between the two epochs, that ancient and the modern one, is represented by the superimposed sliding, but without interference, of two distinct layers of projection.On the windowed wall there is a front projection filtered by a mask that prevents the reaching of the Экран обратной проекции RAR - Arizona.
The frontal projections on the wall are depicting the ancient world of the King, while the city that is looming through the windows is that cold and technological of the epoch of the Prince, that advances to follow the previous one.
The High Priest, right, sends the young virgin Hagith to the King because, coupling with him, she will defeat his disease and will avoid his imminent death.But she will fall in love with the young Prince and she will refuse to save the King with his own sexual sacrifice.As a result of the refusal, the King will die and Hagith will be sentenced to death.
The idea of ​​the mise en scène elaborates expressly that of the film Good Bye, Lenin!, In which the protagonist, a women of Berlin, wakes up from a coma that lasted eight months during which an epochal change happens - the fall of the Wall in 1990.The fact is hidden to her to avoid a shock that could be fatal, and therefore her life continues in a past that doesn't exist any more.
The whole court, who wears the clothing of the epoch of the Prince, agree to hide the changing of the times to the dying King.In order to continue the representation of the golden limbo, they all appear to the King with pompous clothes belonging to a mythical and not clearly identifiable past, that is a sort of an exaggerated and reinterpreted in a farcical way Renaissance.
The theme of the front projections often refers to the desease of the King and to its inexorable evolution.So some ancient anatomical pictures follow one onother, pictures with organs - the heart in this case - veins, blood cells and sometimes the electrocardiogram tracing.
