Description
Production already played in 2016 and 2019.
Tatjana Gürbaca’s staging of Giuseppe Verdi’s classic Rigoletto is one of the most successful productions to originate under Andreas Homoki’s artistic directorship. Gürbaca needs only a long table to tell the story of Rigoletto, the court jester, and his locked-away daughter Gilda, complete in all its facets and depths, accentuating the sharp social criticism central to the work. Mantua’s court is a depraved, masculine society, interested only in humiliation and amusement. It’s a world that’s morally broken and void of any sense of values. Here, having fun means debasing and degrading others – and Rigoletto is the most cynical participant of them all. The only ray of light in this darkness is his daughter Gilda, a beacon of meaningful love, who would rather sacrifice herself than let go of her ideals.
