Die Tickets der weltberühmten Bayreuther Festspiele sind heiß begehrt. Im Durchschnitt müssen Zuschauer*innen 6-14 Jahre auf sie warten. Länger mussten nur Frauen darauf warten, um als Dirigent*innen dabei zu sein. Nach 145 Jahren stand 2021 mit Oksana Lyniv zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte der Opernfestspiele eine Frau vorm Orchester.
Last Thursday the KATAPULT had the chance to speak to a young woman in Russia about the situation inside the country. Originally it was planned as a video-interview. However the newest regulations in Russia which suppress the freedom of press and punish the spreading of information against the government are punishable with a prison sentence of up to 15 years. That’s why the interview will now be published as completely anonymized text. The photos were sent by the interviewee. Her name and hometown has been verified by KATAPULT.
