Powder Her Face by Adès, sön 14 apr 2019, Från (2019/2019), Regisserad av Martin G. Berger, Dirigent Wolfram-Maria Märtig, Kasino am Schwarzenbergplatz, Wien, Österrike

The first opera written by the multi award-winning English composer Thomas Adès is the third Volksoper production to be staged at the Kasino am Schwarzenbergplatz. The piece centres on Margaret Campbell, Duchess of Argyll, a woman synonymous with scandal. Living in a hotel in her old age, she reminisces about her many love affairs and separations. A vicious social satire about the amorality and decadence of the upper class and public voyeurism.
