The Troubadour

Approved

A story of two brothers, separated by fate and then pitted against each other by their love for the same woman and by political turbulences – both unaware of their brotherhood... The libretto of "Il trovatore", although based on a true story harking back to medieval Spain, torn apart by civil wars, is considered excessively complicated, unclear, mostly for this reason that the events which are the most decisive for the plot take place offstage and are only related by the characters. The great success of the opera stems primarily from the ‘musical and vocal delight’. Contrary to such opinions, using his years of experience as a director, Laco Adamik has put much effort into making the storytelling aspect of the production attractive as well. In his staging, the characters are meaty, the events take on real shape, and a crime once committed entails more wrongdoing, much like in an ancient tragedy.
