Synopsis/Cast/Company

Information for The Infernal Comedy: Confessions of a Serial Killer at Symphony Hall, Birmingham (Play). What do Beethoven, Haydn, Weber, Vivaldi and Mozart have to do with the Austrian serial killer Jack Unterweger. All will be revealed in a new stage-play, in which the celebrated actor John Malkovich takes the audience on a journey through the life and mind of the notorious womaniser, writer and murderer. The narrative is told through monologues which are illustrated by and juxtaposed with music embodying the emotions they explore - joy, hatred, love, grief, desire - performed by two sopranos and the Wiener Akademie under their founder Martin Haselböck. At times darkly comic, at other times bleak and brutal, The Infernal Comedy is an intriguing and innovative approach to delving into the twisted mind of, as Malkovich puts it, "a bad, bad guy".

Performers John Malkovich, Bernarda Bobro (soprano), Marie Arnet (soprano). Author Michael Sturminger. Company Wiener Akademie. Conductor Martin Haselbock. Director Michael Sturminger. Costume Birgit Hutter. Costume Wiener Akademie.
