From the Berlin State Opera comes the premiere of an acclaimed multimedia creation that blends opera and film: Marc-André Dalbavie and Guillaume Métayer's adaptation of László Krasznahorkai's allegorical bestseller The Melancholy of Resistance, boasting an all-star cast with Philippe Jaroussky, Sandrine Piau, Matthias Klink, and Tanja Ariana Baumgartner! A slowly decaying small town is thrown into disarray by the appearance of a bizarre circus that features an enormous whale and a three-eyed Prince — an arrival that ultimately leads the townspeople toward the chaos of rebellion, groupthink, and totalitarianism. All throughout, David Marton's canny direction allows us a multifaceted view of events, as onstage action is juxtaposed with parallel scenes projected live from a filmed set behind the screen.Read moreLess
