This spellbinding production, updated to 1830's France, explores timeless social and political relationships with a score - one of Mozart's finest for the stage - full of comedy, romance, envy, joy and bitterness. Beautiful and evocative sets and lighting add to the magic of one of the opera world's greatest hits.
