Il trittico - Royal Opera House, 14 September 2011
How do you handle a death in the family? Try to blot it out in sex without love (Giorgetta in Il tabarro)? Seek solace in religion without faith (Suor Angelica)? Or do you just treat it as a business opportunity, money without scruples (Gianni Schicchi)?
You want wallpaper? Bricks? A ceiling or two? Il trittico opened the Royal Opera House's 2011-12 season tonight. A different set designer was employed for each of the three operas, but somehow the familiar fingerprints of director Richard Jones are evident throughout.
