On this episode of Inside CPH, Literary Director Craig Joseph helps viewers determine what is TRUE or FALSE about Mozart's extensive legacy, that is re-imagined in Peter Shaffer's AMADEUS.
Why does God grace some individuals with talent and genius, but render others dull and mediocre? This is the question that plagues Italian composer Antonio Salieri as he chases after fame and fortune in 18thand 19thcentury Vienna. Frustrated by his plight, Salieri becomes obsessed with ruining a young rival composer — Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart — in a deadly game of deceit and revenge. Musical history is re-orchestrated in Peter Shaffer’s Tony Award-winning tale of music, malice, and madness — Amadeus.
AMADEUS runs at the Outcalt Theatre in Playhouse Square April 6 - April 28.
