“You can’t sing or act any better than this; way Karin Lovelius as Herodias fills every gesture, every note and every step with hate, cynicism, greed and anxiety and contempt for mankind in a preoccupied self. It is music theatre at the peak of what is possible because her art of expression gives the music and the theatre equal weight.”
