Performer: Roland Böer

Penny Woolcock's shanty town production continues to improve with each outing. This time, ENO has found singers who can negotiate the vocal challenges more naturally. 

The main problem with Keith Warner's staging is that the director’s dominating focus is on the Jungian ‘Elektra complex’ rather than Elektra the opera.

Two years ago, when this controversial production by Peter Konwitschny was first seen at English National Opera, I was completely knocked sideways by it. Could it deliver the same emotional blow to the solar plexus this time around?
