Bang to rights: a rare outing for an opera from the former GDR
Die Verurteilung des Lukullus, Paul Dessau and Bertolt Brecht's political satire about a Roman general judged for his deeds after death, has lost none of its relevance in Staatsoper Stuttgart's new production.
In Konwitschny's modern Medea, monsters are made by men
Director Peter Konwitschny's staging of Cherubini's Medea critiques rejection and mistreatment of refugees. A strong new German translation and a talented cast make this a must-see.
Rousseau and a boxing ring: Ariodante in Stuttgart
In Jussi Wieler and Sergio Morabito’s pugilistic production of Ariodante, the singers needed as much physical and gymnastic dexterity as vocal finesse.
Sex and violence in the ghetto: Pique Dame
Oper Stuttgart’s new production of The Queen of Spades (Pique-Dame) pushes a directorial tendency to update opera to a modern setting to an extreme.
Devil in the detail: Gounod's Faust in Stuttgart
A thrilling new staging of Gounod's opera from the team that brought Bayreuth its current Ring, with musical rewards to match.
Modern terror: Salome in Stuttgart
Director Kirill Serebrennikov gives us a frightening new reality of the modern world beset by war and terrorism in his reimagining of Strauss's Salome
Une folle journée: Bieito's Platée
Bieito and Oper Stuttgart's Platée is a true riot, with outstanding vocal performances from Thomas Walker in the cross-dressing title role, and Lenneke Ruiten as a rock star, guitar-toting La Folie.
Stuttgart Ballet's Wayfarers
Stuttgart Ballet performed a triple bill consisting of two innovative world premieres No Men's Land (Edward Clug) and Aftermath (Demis Volpi), with Maurice Bejart's classic Songs of a Wayfarer.
