Una velada correcta para una obra que requiere algo más de desgarro

Isabella Bywater directs an evocative new production of Britten’s ghost opera, well performed at the Coliseum. 

Sir Jonathan Miller’s production of Puccini’s classic remains powerful, but ENO’s latest revival underwhelms at the Coliseum. 

House debutants, soprano Nicole Chevalier and conductor Lidiya Yankovskaya, excel in Isabella Bywater's Górecki staging to close English National Opera's season.

A well-sung revival of Jonathan Miller's Bohème at the coliseum fails to catch fire.

Lindy Hume's new production works reasonably well in allowing the story to be told with sufficient emotional weight.

Tomer Zvulun's mostly traditional account of the Tchaikovsky masterpiece arrives at Seattle Opera in an attractively staged but underwhelming package.

Jonathan Miller's production of La bohème is revived by ENO and features an important house debut. 

Stephen Medcalf directs a coherent staging of Mozart’s opera seria in which Idomeneo’s inner demons are to be battled. 

Jonathan Miller may not be directing new productions of operas any more, but his productions are still being revived in many countries; in Tokyo’s New National Theatre, his Falstaff has just been revived.

ENO's revival of Jonathan Miller's 2009 production is musically solid, but falls short of the dramatic intensity achieved in previous years.

What to do with a “classic revival” that has, in the main, met the critics’ eye of approval? That was the question facing Natascha Metherell, the revival director of ENO’s production of La bohème, which opened this week at the Coliseum. The revival was in fact deftly handled: a production which remained faithful to Miller’s original vision, with honest, rather than over-egged, sentimentality.
