Skilfully drawn characters and excellent dancing make this a great alternative to the plethora of Nutcrackers during the festive season.

Ein beklemmendes psychologisches Drama... jedoch lässt die choreographische und musikalische Spannung nach Beginn schnell nach.

An energized cast delivers in a visually eye-popping production as Monteverdi's opera appears at the Haus am Ring for the very first time.
