BWW Review: THE BEGGAR'S OPERA at Grand Théâtre
by David Sousa Lopes - Sep 30, 2018
Luxembourg has welcomed a variety of interesting shows over the last months, but it has been a while since the public had a chance to see something as great as this version of The Beggar's Opera. This famous masterpiece devised by John Gay and Johann Christoph Pepuschm, who some claim to have defined our modern understanding of musical theatre, is often subject to small adaptations, in order to better fit a certain decade or national context. In this version, Robert Carsen and Ian Burton made the choice to set the play in modern Britain, using 21st century costumes and writing references to today's social and political environment.

SOUND OFF: Sweeney Todd con Michael Ball e Imelda Staunton
by Fernando Solla Rosell - Apr 2, 2012
Sweeney Todd, The Demon Barber of Fleet Street sigue causando conmoción allí por donde pasa. Mundialmente reconocida como una de las obras maestras de Stephen Sondheim, este thriller musical protagonizado por el temible barbero y su fiel (y peligrosamente adorable) Mrs. Lovett está de doble enhorabuena. Al estreno, el pasado 20 de marzo, del nuevo montaje londinense de la pieza se suma el lanzamiento realizado por First Nights Records de la grabación del elenco original, que cada noche da vida (y muerte) a estos personajes que se mueven por las oscuras callejuelas de la ciudad del Támesis.
