Lucia di Lammermoor by Donizetti, Sa. 12 März 2016, Ab (2016/2016), Unter der Regie von Louisa Proske, Dirigat Daniel Schlosberg

"ingenious ... a knockout Lucia" - Wall Street Journal "a radical endeavor" - The New Yorker "masterfully acted" - Opera News One woman’s imagination rebels against a world that seeks to entrap her in this feverish tale of vendetta, blood, and madness. This radical and intimate new vision pares Donizetti's masterpiece down to ninety minutes, six singers, and five instrumentalists. The production features a new arrangement of the score by Daniel Schlosberg for piano, cello, clarinet, guitar, and percussion. In Louisa Proske’s bold staging, opera is synonymous with the unquenchable desire for a life that will not be contained. Lucia’s tale of daring and passion bursts forth from the heart and brain of a nameless asylum inmate and shatters the silence of her captivity.
