Lulu

Following the acclaimed production of Wozzeck, the German director Andrea Breth returns to the Staatsoper with a new staging of Berg's operatic masterpiece with sets by Erich Wonder and costumes by Moidele Bickel. Berg's radical yet sumptuous score depicts the world of the iconic femme fatale Lulu, whose seemingly endless sexual charm takes her from love to love and finally to a murderous end. To realize the opera, Daniel Barenboim leads a stellar cast that includes Mojca Erdmann, Deborah Polaski, Anna Lapkovskaja and Michael Volle.
