His love for Delilah makes the superpowered Samson weak and vulnerable. The Deutsche Oper brings back Camille Saint-Saëns’s grand opera in a production by Patrick Kinmoth, who sets the Biblical tale in the late 19th century, the period in which the work was originally composed.
A good 100 years ago, in the then still independent area of Charlottenburg, the Deutsche Oper was founded in the name of modern music theater, offering full visibility of the stage from every seat. The opera house stayed true to this tradition of citizenry when Fritz Bornemann's new building opened in 1961.
