Silent movie with live orchestra on the big stage of the opera house by Charlie Chaplin
Two film scenes, as legendarily funny as they are gently melancholy: Charlie Chaplin as a tramp who eats his shoe. And the iconic dance of two buns impaled on forks. The Gold Rush, Chaplin's silent film from 1925, tells of the feverish search for gold in Alaska at the end of the 19th century, as well as of unrequited love, friendship, brutality - and ultimately also of happiness in life. After Modern Times and City Lights, Cornelius Meister and the Staatsorchester Stuttgart continue their Chaplin silent film cycle with The Gold Rush, bringing the Hollywood sound directly back to the Littmann-Bau. Chaplin composed the music himself and also includes classics such as Rimsky-Korsakov's Flight of the Bumblebee, Wagner's "Oh, my beautiful evening star" and Tchaikovsky's Sleeping Beauty Waltz. A film experience with live music as a third dimension.
