THE ROYAL BALLET’S DON GIOVANNI - on screen at Theatr Mwldan |
THE ROYAL BALLET’S DON GIOVANNIIn association with Bank of America Merrill Lynch A Live Satellite Broadcast at Theatr Mwldan, Cardigan Dydd Mercher 12 Chwefror :: Wednesday 12 February, 6.45yh/pm £16 (£15) Mozart’s sublime tragic comedy offers boundless scope for directors, and Kasper Holten has chosen it to follow his directorial debut of Eugene Onegin. He wants to shift the emphasis from Don Giovanni’s sex life into a darker place, showing Giovanni’s womanizing as an attempt to stave off his own mortality. Each woman he seduces represents a life he could have had. Though it is a dark piece, Holten intends to handle it with a light touch and he is working with a superb cast – Mariusz Kwiecien, one of the world’s leading Don Giovannis, Alex Esposito, a fresh, vigorous Leporello and acclaimed French soprano Véronique Gens. Set designs are by Es Devlin (most recently here with Les Troyens) and Music Director Antonio Pappano conducts. Tickets for The Royal Ballet screening of Don Giovanni on Wednesday 12 February, 6.45pm at Theatr Mwldan, Cardigan are £16 (£15 concessions) and can be booked as usual by calling 01239 621200 or online at www.mwldan.co.uk.
