The poet E. T. A. Hoffmann as the protagonist of his own fantastic tales: In his encounter with three women - Olympia, Antonia, and Giulietta - he searches in vain for love for love and for himself. Will he draw the strength for art from his failure in life? art from his failures in life? Or will he fail in himself, even in alcohol? Like in a kaleidoscope, ever new constellations and shimmering colors constellations and shimmering colors German romanticism and French esprit.

Les Contes d'Hoffmann

Staatsoper Hamburg

"The Magic Flute" is one of the most enigmatic masterpieces in the history of opera. Mozart's last opera transports the listener to a world of magic, trials, and mysterious symbols, telling a story of the search for inner strength, maturity, and the overcoming of fears. Between light and shadow, a universal interplay of human experiences unfolds – carried by Mozart's profound music and its compelling appeal to humanity. The new production is directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca from Ticino, whose poetic stage language uniquely blends theater, acrobatics, and circus. 

The Magic Flute

Opernhaus Zürich

After last season's intense and engaging reception, Prima Facie returns to give voice to a story that closely questions our sense of justice. Written by Australian playwright Suzie Miller, the play centers on Tessa, a criminal defense lawyer accustomed to defending defendants in sexual assault trials, until a shocking event forces her to reconsider the rules of the justice system from within. With great clarity, the play addresses gender violence and consent, revealing the gap between formal justice and the justice experienced by those who suffer violence. The Italian version is by Daniele Finzi Pasca, who creates a minimalist and surprising production, featuring lighting, music, and scenic details that amplify every word. On stage, an intense Melissa Vettore delivers a tense and passionate monologue, capable of shifting from irony to the most intimate confession, calling on the audience to deeply engage.
