What's a director to do while we wait for technology to catch up with the complexities of the human condition?

Daniel Kramer’s direction is a model of restraint compared to some of his earlier work for the company.

The music’s explosions of volume have an open-throated magnificence.

Despite the entertainment value and striking imagery, Kramer's production is a surprisingly dull affair, with curiously little chemistry between the lead couple.

Rimsky-Korsakov’s opera is rarely performed outside Russia. Sadly, I doubt that Daniel Kramer’s staging for Opera Vlaanderen will win it many new friends.

English National Opera's new Tristan is at its best when responding to Anish Kapoor's stunning stage sculptures.

The popularity of Bizet's 'Carmen' leaves many opera lovers knowing exactly what they want to hear and see before even entering the theatre.
