"King Kong" at the KATiELLi Theater in Datteln
The struggle between man and ape, prehistoric and modern times, love and hope, beauty and monstrosity, the seemingly secure and the unexpected, that's what James Edward Lyons and Paul Graham Brown's musical "King Kong" after the adventure novel by Delos W. Lovelace from 1933 is about.
Obsessed with the desire of conquest, the adventurer Carl Denham travels to the ends of the earth. He pulls the unsuccessful actress Ann Darrow and the cynical dropout Jack Driscoll under his spell. The prehistoric ape Kong forces the three intruders to confront themselves with their own nature. He becomes the catalyst of their fears and aggressions, but also of their hopes and possibilities. The trip will be an emotional odyssey through the valley of human abysses.
After its premiere in 2009 at the Kleines Theater am Südwestkorso in Berlin, the three-person musical is now shown at the KATiELLi Theater in Datteln in February 2012 with Harald in the role of the charismatic, but also somewhat rough sailor Jack Driscoll.
