Olga Neuwirth presents this radical reworking of Alban Berg?s opera ?LuLu?. Set in 1950s New Orleans, ?American Lulu? transports audiences into a world of smoky jazz clubs set against the backdrop of the civil rights movement. The story follows a young dancer as her world is torn apart by the jealous and overpowering men and women who long to be her lover. Taking a look back on her past, the seductive yet scarred Lulu is confronted by a sordid history of sex, murder and suicide.
About The Young Vic
Knocked together out of breeze blocks for a minimal budget in 1970, Lawrence Olivier's experimental theatre was intended to last for five years, and provide an inspiration for the new generation of performers. But this was an experiment that worked and, years later, the Young Vic remains south London's premier venue for the contemporary, the shocking, the controversial, and the bizarre.
