Sparkling Pasquale opens
Posted 27 Jan 2014
Director Renaud Doucet and designer André Barbe have produced a delightful new production of Donizetti's timeless comedy.
Set in 1960s Rome, as the fine images show, the production offers a splendid performance by Alfonso Antoniozzi and some fine singing from the cast. There are some lovely comic touches that never cut across the music. The production team have given us a Pensione Pasquale featuring many cats in a cartoon-like setting. The production as a whole proves an evening to remember.
Only seven performances of this sparkling production are being given - four in Glasgow, three in Edinburgh. Click through our listings to see more images and book your seats here.
