Pyotr I. Tchaikovsky: PIQUE DAME
Channel: DeutscheOperBerlin
Date: 2024-02-15

Pyotr I. Tchaikovsky's penultimate opera PIQUE DAME, adapted from a verse novel by Alexander Pushkin, tells of the unequal struggle between social classes, between striving for freedom and fatalism, love and gambling addiction.

In the new production by British director Sam Brown, the extensive costume design is most important.  We spoke to his stage and costume designer Stuart Nunn during fittings. 

“Singers walks into the room in their normal clothes and over the course of half an hour a character emerges – it is almost as if they would be stepping out of a painting”, Stuart Nunn reflects on the process of costume fitting.

Premiere of PIQUE DAME will be on 9 March - with further performances on 12/15/20/23/27 Mar 2024. All about it: https://t1p.de/1eoxk
