The Woman Without A Shadow
OPERA BASTILLE
15 January 2008
The Woman Without A Shadow (Die Frau Ohne Schatten) is a famous opera by Richard Strauss with the libretto by Hugo von Hofmannsthal. The opera wasn't a great success when it premiered in 1919 mostly due to the complicated and highly symbolic libretto. But now it is considered to be one of the best works of the composer.
Paris Opera Bastille revives Robert Wilson's 2002 production. The cast stars are Eva-Maria Westbroek as the Empress, Jon Villars as her Emperor, Jane Henschel as the nurse, Franz Hawlata as the Dyer and Christine Brewer as the Dyer's Wife. Conducted by Gustav Kuhn, the opera is a real must visit!
