The article examines the production of 'Amadeus' at Aalborg Theatre in Denmark, suggesting that despite its flaws, particularly in terms of complexity and execution, there is an ironic charm to it. The critique emphasizes that the performance may feel overwhelming, as though it contains 'too many notes', a nod to Mozart's own complex compositions. However, this does not detract from the entertainment value or the creative ambition behind the show.

The author points out that the performance does not leave the audience in confusion about Mozart's genius; rather, it reflects a struggle with the ambition of translating such genius onto the stage. The article hints at an inherent absurdity in the perfection and mastery typically associated with Mozart's work when faced with theatrical limitations. The complexity of the presentation encourages a deeper appreciation for the nuances of the storyline and the characters involved.

By presenting the show in a manner that can be perceived as 'mediocre', the theatre invites audiences to engage with it on various levels, enabling discussions about artistic ambition and the challenges that arise from interpreting classic works for contemporary settings. Ultimately, the review conveys that this mediocrity, in its own way, might offer a fantastic opportunity for reflection on the nature of artistry and performance.
