The Coronation of Poppea

Monteverdi’s opera telling of Nero’s passions, namely Poppea.    Although period instruments were used, this production strived for a more modern feel, presenting the show at the night club Le Poisson Rouge and opting for costumes that had period elements but a contemporary silhouette.

A Christmas Carol
