Programs for the season 2010-2011
The Hexagon Ensemble has assembled some special and exciting programmes for the 2010-2011 season. You can find all information on these programs here.

The Lady Macbeth from the Mtsensk district

Following two successful seasons, in which the Hexagon Ensemble, together with actor Carol Linssen, presented the programme entitled Entretiens avec Francis Poulenc, the ensemble, in partnership with actors Carol Linssen and Christine Ewert, is now preparing a multidisciplinary programme for the 2010–2011 season, entitled Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District.

The two points of departure for the new project are Nikolai Leskov’s novella, Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District, as translated by Aleida Schot, and an adaptation of the work for the stage by Carol Linssen and Christine Ewert. The members of the Hexagon Ensemble play music from Shostakovich’s opera, Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District, based on Leskov’s novella, especially arranged for the ensemble by Kees Olthuis. In the resulting work, text and music form an integral, indissoluble whole – a fascinating evening of music and drama, not to be missed!

This production was made possible in part by a grant from the Netherlands Fund for Performing Arts
