Andrea Chénier Comes to Theater St.Gallen This Month

Inspiriert von der Biografie des Dichters André Chénier verschmelzen in Umberto Giordanos veristischer Oper Dichtung und Wahrheit zu einem opulenten und packenden historischen Musikdrama: Im Mittelpunkt der Handlung, die von Französischer Revolution und Schreckensherrschaft der Jakobiner angetrieben wird, steht die fiktive Dreiecksbeziehung zwischen Chénier, der Aristokratin Maddalena und dem Revolutionär Gérard, der seine Autorität missbraucht, um sich seines Rivalen Chénier zu entledigen.

Review: LA BOHÈME at Kennedy Center

The glorious music of Puccini remains the principal reason to see the Washington National Opera’s (WNO)current production of the beloved classic opera La bohème. This oft-referenced opera that has influenced everything from the famous film Moonstruck to the hit Broadway musical Rent, must be a fairly faithful revival of the original opera that the WNO presented at the Kennedy Center in 2014 –the original director Peter Kazaras is one again at the helm.  Additionally, the original costumes by Jennifer Moeller (which are appropriate to the updated period), the original choreography by Ben Wright and the original set design by Lee Savage have all been retained. From referencing the program, however, it seems that lighting design by A. J. Guban has been brought in for this production.
