Nouvelle production du rare opéra de Berlioz, Benvenuto Cellini, à l'Opéra Bastille. Mise en scène spectaculaire de Terry Gilliam.

There's no faulting the execution, but the former Python's take on Berlioz's dramatic legend is worryingly inconsistent in tone. 

Would a younger soprano taking the role of Tatyana blur Kasper Holten's "dancing doubles" vision of Eugene Onegin at the Royal Opera House?

El Gran Teatre del Liceu presenta, ante una gran expectación, Benvenuto Cellini de la mano de Terry Gilliam. Tras una intensa campaña promocional, asistimos a un gran éxito de la temporada, con Josep Pons en la dirección musical y John Osborn y Kathryn Lewek en los roles principales.

Birmingham Royal Ballet presents its Variations Triple Bill at Sadler’s Wells, with works by George Balanchine, Frederick Ashton and David Bintley

True to its origin in the Romantic period of the 19th century, this Swan Lake dances the Royal Birmingham Ballet into history because of the beauty of its leading dancer, Céline Gittens, one of the world's first non-white ballerinas.

The task sounded Herculean: turning Benvenuto Cellini, that reputedly difficult, flawed work by Berlioz, into an utterly entertaining show that renders justice to its youthfully energetic music. This is what Terry Gilliam manages to pull off... and it is nothing short of miraculous.
