Antonella Carpenito / Avaliações

This Rigoletto was an admirable revival of late director Giancarlo Cobelli’s 1989 staging, which provoked a scandal for the nude scenes when it was first performed. Now it seems reassuringly traditional as far as the drama goes: gloomy, as it must be, with some gothic elements. Paolo Tommasi's sets and Giusi Giustino's costumes evoke paintings by Mantegna, depicting the magnificence of the Gonzaga court.
