Salvando a Mozart

Pop musical that gives visibility to Nannerl Mozart and Constanza Webber, the key women who sacrificed their own recognition to preserve the legacy of Amadeus Mozart.

The show reconstructs the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart from the perspective of the two women who were closest to him: his sister Nannerl, a composer whose career was cut short because she was a woman, and his wife Constanza Webber, an opera singer who made La flauta mágica possible. Both appear alongside Wolfi and Nannerl as young rebels, vulnerable and determined to defend their creative independence against an elitist environment that tried to silence them.

Charli Eglinton writes the music, libretto and lyrics for this production, which blends pop music with references to almost 80 pieces by Mozart and asks who the real architects of his legacy were. Guillermo Sabariegos directs and adapts the staging, with set design and production by Artesano Produce, lighting by Cristian Pascual and costumes by Montse Maroñas. The graphic and web design is by Con la Diestra.

In the cast, Francis García plays Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Bea Carnicero plays Nannerl and Borja del Real plays Leopold Mozart. Cristina Gallego and Chofa Contreras are cast as Constanza Webber and Anna Maria Mozart. The cast is completed by Gabriel de San Juan, Champi Guzmán, Charlie Cabanas, Ana Marinas and Icíar García del Valle, and Gabriel de San Juan and Champi Guzmán also perform as understudies.
