Opera Lab Berlin’s own take on George Bernard Shaw’s „Pygmalion“, Words presents the story of Henry Higgins and Eliza Doolittle within a confused language that itself must be divided, expanded, and reinvented. Against a backdrop of concert pieces for chamber ensemble and voice, texts are renounced of all meaning as parts of speech are broken down through verbal acrobatics into their musical components.
Instrumentation: Two sopranos, mezzo-soprano, baritone, actor,
five-voice male choir, orchestra
Musical direction: Manuel Nawri
Director: Michael Höppner
Stage-design: Yassu Yabara
Costume-design: Kerstin Grießhaber
Director of Choir: Stelios Chatziktoris
Makeup: Martin Rink
Duration: ca. 1h30

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
