Outstanding costumes, excellent scenery, great music. The staging of the piece was also very successful in terms of content. I would not have expected such perfection here in Stuttgart after Stella went into bankruptcy. I am, however, convinced that this production will enable Stella's new owner, Peter Schwenkow, to revive the company. It will certainly not be difficult to market this piece on an international scale.
Every detail is just right, such as the synchronized dance in front of the mirror.
Sometimes it's hard not to miss the Meat Loaf sound of composer Jim Steinman.
