Is this a promotional photo or yet another regie mutilation of a classic piece?
The latter — and she was laughably mannered at the premiere to make things worse. Totally inept director and a stylistically clueless conductor (Kirill P) as well.
She is always mannered and is always the same, playing a neurotic hysterical girl
jerking her hands. Same in Rigoletto, La fille de regimen, Pearl fishers , etc.
She used to have a lovely coloratura, but the quality of the singing has been declining. She did dare to speak out against Regie in one interview, calling it “just noise”, so I give her some credit.
Too bad, another travesty of a production will pass off as Lucia di Lammermoor for some.
?Did she drive in a Chevy to the fountain in act 1?
