Veronika Dzhioeva presents a menacing Turandot in Opera Hong Kong's latest production which attempts to merge historical accuracy with the complexities of Orientalism. 

This production brought the work into the 21st century, at least visually, with a more modernised and digitally-stylised telling than their recent attempts.

Datong: The Chinese Utopia, a Chinese chamber opera in three acts, commissioned by the Hong Kong Arts Festival, takes a daring stab at Chinese political history while celebrating the life of a pioneering Chinese feminist.
