Artiste: SKUTR (Martin Kukučka and Lukáš Trpišovský)

SKUTR's daring direction and Václav Luks's early music expertise combine to bring new vitality to a Baroque classic. 

Directors Martin Kukučka and Lukáš Trpišovský, who work together as SKUTR, take on Dvořák’s Rusalka with a surfeit of ideas. 

Whilst the spirit of Mozart permeates the Estates Theatre in Prague, it was sadly absent in both the staging and singing of his “work of uninterrupted perfection”.
