Ludger Engels inszeniert Wagners Liebesdrama und überrascht mit einer ungewöhnlichen aber eindrucksvoll kunstverständigen Interpretation.

Many scenes could risk to be particularly disturbing,  but their overt brutality appeared functional, to the structure of the drama. A dark, gloomy story as unambiguously told as it should be.

An updating of Mozart's Die Entführung aus dem Serail to the post-World War One era in a desert fails to inspire in Aix.
