Manon Lescaut by Puccini, Sâm 08 Febr. 2014, De la (2014/2014), Regizat de către Mariusz Treliński, Dirijor Lothar Koenigs, Wales Millennium Centre, Cardiff, United Kingdom

If you enjoy La bohème, Madam Butterfly and Tosca you will want to explore Puccini’s breakthrough hit and first great opera. Manon has been seduced. As an impressionable young woman she wanted it all. She wanted to taste the tempting fruit of adult life. Now just months later she has discovered that the fruit is rotten at the core. Does Manon have any chance of salvation? Manon Lescaut is the classic Fallen Woman. Puccini charts her rapid descent from innocent to criminal with feverish intensity. By setting this production in the contemporary world we all recognise, Marius Trelinski's production brings this breathless tale of obsession and self-destruction urgently to life.
