Description was written before the event

Where do emotions run as high as on the football pitch? In the opera, of course! Here they love, quarrel, even murder - and still sing for their lives!

In a unique fusion of fan chants, football songs, and heart-wrenching opera arias, Inken Rahardt and her young ensemble bring an exciting production to the stage, full of energy, passion, and drama.

Supported by the Football & Culture Foundation EURO 2024 and the German government following a resolution of the German Bundestag.

Awarded the Hamburg Theatre Prize 2024 in the category "outstanding direction".

About the venue: Opernloft im Alten Fährterminal Altona

The Opernloft is a small, independent opera house housed in the former ferry terminal building in Hamburg-Altona. It stages opera and musical theatre in an intimate setting, with the audience seated close to the performers - a deliberate contrast to the grand stages of conventional opera houses. The repertoire ranges from classic works to contemporary pieces, often performed in German.
