“Russ” translates as “soot”, the title of Bridget Breiner’s retelling of Cinderella. However it’s the role of Livia, the rather spirited Stepsister who must navigate the family trauma. 

It’s all change at the Ballett am Rhein with new Chief Choreographer, Bridget Breiner, and Ballet Director, Raphaël Coumes-Marquet taking over from Demis Volpi for the 24/25 season.

Oper Leipzig's co-production with Bayreuth Festspiele pulls off a delightful take on Wagner's Das Liebesverbot. With excellent vocals, the Gewandhaus Orchestra, and great wit, Wagner's comedy comes highly recommended.

Eine grandiose Inszenierung bietet das Liebesverbot an der Oper Leipzig und ist eine Reise wert.
