Zarah 47 - The Total Song

On March 15, 1947, Zarah Leander spends her 40th birthday alone and abandoned on the remote Lönö estate in Sweden. The great diva of the Nazis is outcast and unemployed. The telephone that used to ring incessantly remains silent—but the voices of the past grow louder. On a musical journey through her life, she looks back with sharp wit and without scruples on her career, which she bought by turning a blind eye to politics. With this solo evening, which tells the story of a woman torn between art, world events, her own hopes, and her responsibilities, the versatile Tyrolean actress Brigitte Jaufenthaler returns to the TLT, accompanied on the piano by renowned musician Christian Wegscheider.
