Shallow under shock: Protest and citizens leave the Sancta Opera in Stuttgart

At the controversial opera "Sancta" in Stuttgart, another visitor had to leave the hall on Saturday due to circulatory problems. Overall, the visitor service of the Stuttgart State Opera looked after three people during the third performance. This opera, staged by Florentina Holzinger, had already caused a sensation at the premiere when 18 people had to be treated. The performance, which works with real blood, among other things, ensures mixed reactions and divides the audience.

In addition, there have been increased safety precautions since the start of the performances, since the director Holzinger has received threats and hate messages. In front of the opera house, around 50 members of the Catholic Organization TFP demonstrated against the performance on Saturday, but there were no incidents. The next performances of "Sancta" are already sold out and take place on Sunday and on the first weekend in November. You can find out more in a report www.swr.de .
