A CLOCKWORK ORANGE

 
 
 
 

Play
Directed by Matjaž Pograjc
Produced by Mladinsko Theatre
Opening night: December 11 2009

Peklenska pomaranča (A Clockwork Orange), Matjaž Pograjc's staging of Anthony Burgess' celebrated novel, marks the 12th collaboration between the director and Silence. The play is Pograjc at his best – a homogenous conglomerate of numerous genres (musical, comedy, contemporary dance, theatre of the absurd, puppetry ...), seriously wacky and humorously profound.

The play's soundtrack features music by Beethoven and approximately 30 minutes of original music written by Silence. The latter consists of five instrumentals and five songs performed by the play's cast (Damjana Černe, Maruša Oblak, Uroš Kaurin, Ivan Peternelj, Ivan Rupnik, Blaž Šef, and Nataša Živkovič). A Clockwork Orange is one of Silence's most playful electronic scores to date, strewn with countless references to various electronic artists and genres (New Romanticism, Italo Disco, Electropunk, Serge Gainsbourg, Wendy Carlos' synthesized Bach ...). Work on the soundtrack stretched from October to December 2009. Silence wrote, recorded and produced the music in Daily Girl, the duet's studio.
