What makes Stéphane Braunschweig's production exceptional is its ability to reveal the opera's beating heart without resorting to didacticism. 

Huge de Ana's staging is carefully crafted but feels dramaturgically outdated as the Teatro di San Carlo heads into the twilight of sovrintendente Stéphane Lissner’s final season. 

This first-time Neapolitan performance of Gounod's masterpiece is destined to leave a lasting impression in the audience's memory.
