”Given inside an industrial warehouse/garage that serves as a coffee shop during the day – this production is set in a meatworks (design by Isabella Andronos) instead of a barge tied up in the Seine. A big white transport van takes up most of the performing space. This van is craftily used during the paean to Paris (Bellville) duet that Luigi and Giorgetta sing; the soaring lines of Puccini are framed by the blazing headlights of the van, dazzling us and almost obliterating the singers.”
