Orsino Goes Mad - A Musical Comedy in the Countryside - Freely Adapted from William Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" — HALLE 19, Celle

Today everything seems settled: Vivi has won Orsino, Linda has moved to the city with Sebastian, and Tobi is kept by Maria. Yet just last summer the whole village was in turmoil. Orsino, an Italian innkeeper and for twenty years secretly in love with Linda from the riding stable across the way, completely lost his mind. When Linda finally became available, he threw parties for every occasion, founded local societies and men's groups, loudly dreaming of a love that Linda absolutely refused to return.

In the emotional chaos that gripped the village a year ago, Tobi nearly lost his friend and patron Andrew. The regular guest from Hamburg has been searching for the right woman for years - apparently always in the wrong place. Tobias made sure things - well, mostly - ran reasonably smoothly, especially down his throat. In the end it was Vivi who threw everything into confusion: half the village fell in love, but neither partners nor timing matched. Hasko, the clipboard-carrying guardian of order, desperately tried to stack feelings like chairs - without success.

The comedy transplants Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" to a rural inn: half festival hall, half barn, half warehouse. It's about love and order - and the wonderful chaos in between. After a successful "Landpartie" tour, "Orsino Goes Mad" now settles permanently in HALLE 19 in Celle.
