Stravinsky's primal force in martini-Park: A ballet evening that makes Augsburg tremble

On Friday, May 8, 2026, the Staatstheater Augsburg transforms the martini-Park into a pulsating field of sound and movement: Two key works of the 20th century are in focus – Igor Stravinsky's 'Les Noces' and 'Le Sacre du printemps'. Choreographically responsible are Didy Veldman and ballet director Ricardo Fernando, presenting an evening that combines musical power, precise conducting, and uncompromising stage performance.

Live atmosphere: When rhythm penetrates to the core

From the first strike, a dense audience atmosphere builds up. In 'Les Noces', singing, percussion, and piano ensembles merge into a jagged orchestration; in 'Sacre', polyrhythms, sharp syncopations, and earthy colors explode. The acoustics of the hall carry the sound far into the space, light and shadow delineate clear contours, and every synchronization of the company hits the beat.

Dance language of today: Bodies as seismographs

Didy Veldman shapes collective energy into precise tableaux, intertwining lines, breaks, and breaths. Ricardo Fernando relies on physical attack, clear spatial axes, and tension in the offbeat. Thus, a concert experience with stage power is created: dense, raw, sensual.

Context and effect: Hearing Stravinsky anew

Both works mark turning points in music history. 'Les Noces' with its ritual strictness, 'Sacre' with its eruptive pulse – together they create an evening that breaks expectations and sharpens perception. Reviews and schedule data confirm: This combination electrifies Augsburg's dance scene.

Audience comfort: Access, shuttle, accessibility

The venue martini-Park is located at Provinostraße 52. It's just a few minutes walk from the tram stop 'Textilmuseum'; alternatively, there is a theater shuttle. Parking is recommended in the City-Galerie parking garage, from where a short path leads to the theater. For accessible seats, please contact the visitor service in advance.

Conclusion
