An evening where Morricone's music becomes movement
With Night Morricone, the Centro Coreografico Nazionale / Aterballetto presents a choreographic homage to Ennio Morricone at the Stadttheater Fürth on May 16, 2027. Marcos Morau transforms the filmic and conceptual worlds of the composer into a dense stage experience where dance, music, theater, and cinema intertwine.
Between memory, night, and cinema
The production leads into a stage landscape that thrives on memory. Sixteen dancers appear as reflections, cinema-goers, film actors, and Morricone's alter egos. Such an arrangement creates a staging that not only celebrates the Maestro's sound world but also reveals his inner dramaturgy: the tension between silence and pathos, between abyss and melody.
Marcos Morau shapes a night laboratory of movement
Morau is known for his visually precise, poetically heightened directorial style. In Night Morricone, he condenses the choreography into a nocturnal piece full of imagery. The bodies write stories in the space, while lighting, rhythm, and set design create an atmospheric fabric that resembles a theater of memories. The effect is not illustrative but suggestive: The audience experiences how Morricone's music is translated into movement.
Aterballetto as a master of contemporary dance art
CCN/Aterballetto is one of the defining addresses of the Italian dance scene. The ensemble combines technical precision with stylistic openness and a strong contemporary aesthetic. This is why this production fits so well into the program of a venue like the Stadttheater Fürth, whose large hall allows a concentrated view of body work, sound colors, and the subtle nuances of acting in dance.
Voices from the critics
The response to past performances has been remarkable. Die Deutsche Bühne described the work as feverishly choreographed night laboratory, where Morricone's creative madness unfolds between chalk dust, Western shadows, and sharply timed dance language. This is not just a mere dance of honor, but an artistically independent reflection on memory, popular culture, and musical mythology.
The theater evening at the Stadttheater Fürth
The Stadttheater Fürth provides the perfect setting for this evening: centrally located, audience-friendly, and with clear service pathways for arrival, cloakroom, and accessibility. Those who arrive on time will experience a theater atmosphere where the curtain promises more than a performance: It opens a space where great stage art and sensory perception come together.
Conclusion: Night Morricone is an evening for all who want to experience dance as a narrative art and music as a physical experience. Those who engage with this premiere will encounter an intense, imagery-rich stage experience full of emotion, precision, and cinematic depth. Experience it live at the Stadttheater Fürth and secure your tickets in time.
