Overview of "Die Passagierin"
"Die Passagierin" (The Passenger) is an opera by Mieczysław Weinberg, based on the play by Zofia Posmysz an auschwitz survivor. The story is set on a transatlantic ship in the 1950s and revolves around the encounter between a former concentration camp guard, Lisa,(Jenny Carlstedt) and one of her former prisoners, Marta (Sylvia D'Eramo).
The opera explores themes of memory, guilt, and the haunting effects of the Holocaust on both victims and perpetrators.
The production originally from Bayrische Staatsoper was crowned "production of the year" by the magazine Opernwelt in 2024.
