A political thriller or a love opera? Magnificent "Un Ballo In Maschera" (“A Masked Ball”) by G.Verdi, staged by Dmitry Bertman, is again being exclusively performed in "Helikon-Opera"! In Moscow "Un Ballo In Maschera" is presented only in our theatre, although it is one of the most popular operas in the world. It has everything that can attract the modern audience: a thrilling plot, the expressiveness of the vocal parts, marvellous music, art of creating ensembles.... It is no coincidence that this opera by G.Verdi is said to be the most melodramatic of all his melodramas.

The assassination of King Gustav III of Sweden at the ball in 1792 formed the basis of several dramas at the same time. Later Verdi wrote the script out of one of them, and the author of the libretto was a Venetian writer Antonio Somma. For the record, none of Verdi's operas was censored like "Un Ballo In Maschera": the authors even had to change the plot, and Gustav was replaced by a mythical Governor of Boston who was murdered by his secretary. Verdi went for it to save the opera.

For Director Dmitry Bertman the opera "Un Ballo In Maschera" is about two passions, two “drugs” which are people corrupted by: power and love. The intrigue is based on political conspiracy, and love becomes a bargaining chip. Love drama, witchcraft, betrayal and bloody revenge... It is all mixed up in a furious whirlwind of emotions!
