Amadeus.
LUCIAN Msamati (Luther, Game of Thrones, NT Live: The Comedy of Errors) plays Salieri in Peter Shaffer’s iconic play – broadcast live from the National Theatre, to the Adam Smith Theatre, Kirkcaldy, on Thursday February 2 and with live orchestral accompaniment by Southbank Sinfonia.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a rowdy young prodigy, arrives in Vienna, the music capital of the world – and he’s determined to make a splash.
Awestruck by his genius, court composer Antonio Salieri has the power to promote his talent or destroy his name.
Seized by obsessive jealousy he begins a war with Mozart, with music, and ultimately, with God.
It will have some fantastic music and a tremendous story.
