MATHILDE DI SHABRAN

a Medieval fairy tale adventure in a snow globe” Rossini

A comical masterpiece, infantile yet so clever, this opera truly lets Rossini’s mischief come to life! With a Medieval Castle including a drawbridge & a hot-air balloon in Act II, “Mathilde di Shabran” is a high-tempo whirlwind inside a snow globe! The characters seem to have sprung out of a child’s imagination, and THIS  is exactly how it will be staged.

Monty Python-esque humor and a world filled with wind-up doll heroes, Playmobil knights, 2-meter-high teddy bears, and an army fighting with coloring crayons!
