Since the Stonewall riots in New York in 1969, June has been traditionally declared as Pride Month. The Volksoper also aims to stand up with a clear message of diversity and love, and to show solidarity with the queer community worldwide. Therefore, we will ceremoniously raise the Pride flag in front of the Volksoper with a musical program and then proceed to the foyer to continue the evening with a concert.
As diverse as the meaning of the rainbow flag, so too shall be the program of this evening. From queer composers of the past to iconic pop songs of the present, we will cover a wide range and sprinkle the concert with poetic to political texts from Virginia Woolf, Gertrude Stein, Kae Tempest, Kim de L’Horizon, and many others.
