A Comedy about Florence Foster Jenkins at the Schauspielhaus Neubrandenburg
The Sommerspektakel is a summer theater production by the Theater und Orchester Neubrandenburg/Neustrelitz (TOG), which runs for several weeks at the Schauspielhaus Neubrandenburg. In 2026, the comedy by Peter Quilter, "Glorious!", is on the program.
"Glorious!" tells the true story of Florence Foster Jenkins, a New York socialite from the 1940s. She loved music and was a celebrated socialite – but while she believed she was enchanting the world with her angelic voice, in acoustic reality, high society bent over with laughter when she belted out her arias. Quilter's comedy is a touching tribute to a woman whose joie de vivre, self-confidence, and love of music are absolutely infectious.
Directed by Paul Spittler, with stage and costumes by Tom Unthan, musical direction by Jakob Gühring, and dramaturgy by Oliver Lisewski. Karin Hartmann plays the title role of the "Queen of Dissonance". Alongside her are Jakob Gühring (Pianist Cosme McMoon), Dirk Schmidt (St. Clair Bayfield), Lisa Scheibner (Dorothy), and Larissa Emma Voulgarelis (Maria / Mrs. Verindah-Gedge).
The Schauspielhaus Neubrandenburg is a venue of the TOG, the multi-disciplinary theater for the region. Neubrandenburg is located in the Mecklenburg Lake District in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. The Summer Spectacle marks a cheerful season finale before the summer break.
