Opera North's dazzling Queen of Spades is full of Russian passion
Jane Shuttleworth, 13th November
Queen of Spades began life as a sharp little ghost story by Alexander Pushkin, quite different in tone and spirit from the melodramatic adaptation by Modest Tchaikovsky, who wrote the libretto for his composer brother.
