Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky created his last opera, inspired by a medieval French legend. Iolanthe, the daughter of King Rene, is blind from birth, but does not know about her illness. Surrounded by care, she lives quietly and happily in her ignorance, until a young knight accidentally enters the castle.

The opera literally sings of love and its healing power. After all, only having fallen in love, having experienced mental pain and overcoming fear, Iolanta begins to see clearly. The final chorus glorifies the universe, the light of reason, morality and purity. The production is saturated with color, which sets off the subtle lyrics of the music and supports the main idea of ​​the victory of light over darkness.
