As the Tedesco would say, “Ah, it is the same old avant-garde.”
Obviously, the person who is kneeling was mugged by a rampaging group of cheerleaders and the standing individual is returning home after performing in a dinner theater production of The Sound Of Music and is about to offer First Aid.
Well the set is to dark for light opera so I guess it must be something dramatic.
A drunk with a lampshade about to be mugged by someone from the Lesbosnian Navy.
Well… lone mezzo in trouser role with alone with male singer (who I would assume to be rather distraught) in evening dress makes me think Tales of Hoffmann by Offenbach (also a popular show for strange production ideas)… Of course it could be something Baroque, but usually mezzos simply played men and this character is clearly supposed to be a boy. Or I could be completely wrong and it’s something like Un Ballo in Maschera. My gut says Hoffmann. It’s a really cool show, but directors get carried away with the possibilities. (Of course, I am of the opinion that opera directors are hired more as someone to create a cohesive design plan rather than dramatic interpretation. Someday, this will change.)
Where did you find this picture?
Never mind… it’s from Zangezi (a musical) based on a play by a Russian futurist poet who died of malnutrition in 1922. The subtitle is “A Supersaga in 20 Planes.” I think that’s all we need to know… XD So much for educated guessing.
obviously a dress rehearsal for a new rufus wainwright video.
