Les Contes d'Hoffmann by Offenbach
Daniele Finzi Pasca brings an enchanting, fairy-tale-like version of Offenbach’s “Les Contes d’Hoffmann” to the stage.
The poet E. T. A. Hoffmann as the protagonist of his own fantastic tales: In his encounter with three women - Olympia, Antonia, and Giulietta - he searches in vain for love and for himself.
