LA MUSICA | ZWISCHEN IHR UND IHM
based on the plays «La Musica 2» and «The English Lover»
by Marguerite Duras
Residenztheater München
from 06 | 06 | 2026
This new work by the Italian director Silvia Costa combines two plays by Marguerite Duras, the grande dame of French literature. While in «La Musica», on the evening after their divorce, a couple take a realistic look back at the life they shared and imagine what might have happened if they had stayed together, «The English Lover» presents the nightmare version of the end of a relationship, in which violence that has been smouldering for years erupts.
