Concert performance
On five July evenings the Naissaar island will host a lightshow concert performance „Laser and Lenses“, in which the author Dominy Clements continues to explore the life of Bernhard Schmidt, the world famous optician from Naissaar. The performance is a sequel to Clements's opera „An Enlightened Disciple of Darkness“ of the 2013 Nargenfestival, staged in Noblessner's foundry and showing Bernhard Schmidt's whole life. „Laser and Lenses“ concentrates on one single day in 1935, the last year in the life of the famous optician. The main character's dreams and experiences, spellbinding music and organ sound landscapes will meet on the stage with the laser harp's rays in the focus of the stunning show. Oliver Kuusik as Schmidt will bring the main character close to the audience from the darkness of the past, inspired by his blood relation to the famous islander.
