Intérprete: Alexey Antonov

Revel with a naughty Don Giovanni at the Komische Opera in Berlin.

Barrie Kosky's new production of Eugene Onegin at the Komische Oper Berlin is delicious for the eyes, ears and emotions. 

Usually, I don’t find much to be excited about in opera stagings meant to overhaul the genre, to give it the resuscitation it apparently needs. They are always more promising on paper, always less effective in execution: I’ve seen all kinds of sexual permissiveness, giant machines, film projections, even singing robots (an especially low point).
