Das neue Interaktiv-Musical “HOPE” feiert am 17. Januar 2010 in der Jahrhunderthalle in Frankfurt am Main Weltpremiere.
HOPE – Obama Musical Story präsentiert emotional bewegend die Geschichte einer neuen Generation! Die vorherrschend schwierige wirtschaftliche Situation lässt die Menschen näher zusammenrücken – ein neuer „Geist entsteht.
Und genau diesen greift das Musical unter dem von Barack Obama weltweit verbreiteten Slogan YES WE CAN auf.
HOPE ist kein herkömmliches Musical, sondern vereint eine Mischung verschiedener musikalischer Stilrichtungen, wie Pop, Soul, Gospel, HipHop, Rock und Klassik. Die Inszenierung ist damit Spiegelbild einer multikulturellen Gesellschaft. Dramatische Balladen und mitreißende Songs bringen die nötige Mischung aus Gänsehaut-Feeling und Begeisterung. Dargeboten von einer erstklassigen Künstlerbesetzung.
Mit «baff Musikmöbel» präsentiert das Musical ein weiteres Novum: mit der innovativen Erfindung spezieller Trommelstühle als Bestuhlung für das gesamte Publikum werden weltweit erstmals Tausende von Menschen gemeinsam mit den Künstlern auf der Bühne in dem Musical agieren. Dieses völlig neue Rhythmus- und Trommelerlebnis jedes Einzelnen schafft im Rahmen des Events ein großartiges Gemeinschaftsgefühl, das alle mitreißt und begeistert.
Erleben Sie hautnah das neue Musical HOPE und musizieren Sie gemeinsam mit den Bühnenstars!
