Description
Religion, power, ego, and manipulation collide in composer Giacomo Meyerbeer’s glorious psychodrama. Director Christian Räth (Die schweigsame Frau, 2022 and Das Wunder der Heliane, 2019) returns for a third SummerScape to lead a visionary new production of a grand opera with colorful vocal passages, inventive orchestrations, and a catastrophic end.
Sung in French with English supertitles.
