The letter ends with P.S. I love you

A evening of music, theatre and poetry about love, in two languages.

From Shakespeare to Pasternak, from Mozart to Nino Rota, from “Carmen” to “Notre-Dame de Paris”.

Actors: Mikhail Manevich, Karin Lamson (Südalinna Teater)

Piano, vocals: Eda Zahharova, Ksenia Rossar, Mikhail Manevich, Karin Lamson

The most important words are rarely said straight away. Sometimes they appear only after the last full stop: after a long letter, after years of life together, after a parting, after a long silence. That is why many love letters end with a postscript, a remark that holds the most intimate thoughts.

Millions of words have been written about love, yet we always long to hear the most important ones again. We invite you to an evening where music, poetry and theatre merge into one whole: a love story that has inspired people for centuries to create, to dream and to believe.

This evening the boundaries between ages dissolve. Petrarch meets Shakespeare, Mozart collides with Nino Rota, the paths of Boris Pasternak and Boris Rõžin cross, Doris Kareva meets Kalevipoeg, and classical opera blends with legendary musicals. Poetry and prose, arias and songs take the stage: works that are familiar to everyone, yet can surprise even the most experienced listener. Beloved pieces celebrating love, arias from “Don Giovanni” and “Carmen”, excerpts from “The Phantom of the Opera” and “Notre-Dame de Paris”, and other well-known tunes, lead the audience into a world of passionate feelings.

The programme includes Estonian- and Russian-language works, deep declarations of love, heart-touching music and words to which one wants to return again and again.

This evening is meant for all generations: for those who love theatre, for those who love poetry, for those who have not heard live music for a long time, for lovers, spouses, friends, parents and young people, and for anyone who simply wants to spend a beautiful evening in an inspiring atmosphere.

We grow up. Times change. Styles, interests and music change.

But in the end people always talk about the same thing.

P.S. I love you
