WORD BY WORD [THE JOUISSANCE EDITION]
A BONDAGE OPERA | THE BLACK DIAMOND, COPENHAGEN, DENMARK

Have the pleasure of observing a man strapped to a chair for 30 humiliating minutes! It’s a rather intimate and hedonistic setting in The Black Diamond. With his arms and legs all tied up the Danish composer Niels Rønsholdt will be singing his schizophrenic one-man-opera. Intoxicated by a series of recent love affairs he takes us on a musical odyssey drifting between pathetic catchphrases and sadist jealousy. But one question still remains to be answered: who did this to him?
