Totale Finsternis: Tanz der Vampire in Berlin, 14/16.05.2013
The first time I saw TdV on the video with Steve Barton at 2006. The quality was awful, but I was in love with this show so much! That was almost the same original version that is now on the stage of Theater des Westens.
In this vacation I was lucky enough to visit the German capital…
Awesome review! Interesting insights, and I regret not seeing Ivan at his best a couple months ago, but I agree with most of what you’re saying.
I’m glad that you were interested. :)
Ivan changes constantly, even here in Russia from block to block…
And it’s a pity that Metcedesz plays only in Berlin. She speaks Russian very well, so she could play here too… Just because our version hasn’t Sternkind. Only Sarah the daughter of Jew in the person of Lena Gazaeva. And Vera is neither Sternkind nor Sarah for me…
It’s not that he changes (though I definitely saw a difference in his Berlin and Russian Krolock), but he’d been sick and lacked energy (just as most of the rest of the cast).
