DeSchoneCompagnie - JUPI

If you, on a beautiful, sunny day, look at the clouds attentively and long enough… if you peer very well and far enough… then you can see it: a gazebo with 2 cloud dwellers in it. And if you then also listen very well, then you can hear it: the most beautiful music. The one cloud dweller plays an old guitar. The other sings so beautifully and high that her hair lights up from it. Together it sounds beautiful. It makes them happy, cheerful, and glad. A third cloud dweller sits there and watches it. Sad, a bit angry too… and jealous. He wants to join in. But… he cannot sing. No matter how hard he tries, only ugly screaming comes out of his mouth. It makes him sad, angry, and… jealous. Jupi is a stimulating story about playing together and being alone, about being able to and granting, about light and music. Deschonecompanie has been making opera accessible to a wide audience for years. This time it is the turn of the very young to get the chance to enjoy opera.
