In autumn, this tango work will receive its world premiere at the Grossen Kirche Fluntern. It tells in seven scenic images the eventful life of Swiss-Argentine poet Alfonsina Storni – from her rebellious spirit, her early feminism, her connection to nature and her existential closeness to death. The choir serves as a mirror of society at the time – initially critical, later hypocritically admiring. Actor Ingo Ospelt brings Storni's texts and thoughts to vivid life on stage. Immerse yourself in a unique combination of tango, poetry and theatre and discover the moving legacy of Alfonsina Storni.
