Le Comte Ory

With Yijie Shi, Lorenzo Regazzo, Laura Plverelli, Roberto De Candia and María José Moreno

For reasons that are by no means clear, in this production the work is set in an hotel at which the guests are invited to a soirée based on the legend of Count Ory. They dress up as the characters in a rudimentary way. The director clearly gets much fun from the disguise of the men as nuns in Act 2 when their nuns’ habits are worn over old-fashioned underwear which they take every opportunity to reveal.
