A music-theater evening at Theater Rigiblick that fuses the music of Pink Floyd with the world of Edgar Allan Poe. At its heart is "Atom Heart Mother", a 24-minute Pink Floyd composition from 1970, performed by the tribute band "Crazy Diamond", a 30-voice choir with soloists, 14 brass players, a cellist and an actor. The music is set against Poe's tale "Der Untergang des Hauses Usher", in which the narrator's friend suffers from mental illness. Concept and acting: Daniel Rohr, direction: Peter Schweiger, musical direction: Hugo Bollschweiler; running time 80 minutes.
