Opéra National de Paris: Verdi's Don Carlos (2017)

Directed by Krzysztof Warlikowski

“Giuseppe Verdi's grand opera live at the Opéra Bastille, Paris on October 19th, 2017”

Drama, History, Music · 4h 50m

Set in 16th-century France and Spain, Don Carlos tells of the political and amorous rivalry between King Philip II and his son, Don Carlos, over Elisabeth de Valois. Krzysztof Warlikowski strips down a tragedy haunted by ghosts, and places the intimate at the heart of an imaginary fresco truer than history itself. Along with Philippe Jordan, he reveals to the public the very first version of this great five-act opera: the version modified by Verdi himself for the work’s first performance in 1867.
