Review: OKLAHOMA! at Wyndhams Theatre

On a brightly lit, pine wood stage which extends to the facia panels on the walls and boxes around the Wyndham’s auditorium, (effectively rendering them like cheap Western coffin lids) the banjo, guitar and string-strumming band members remain in full sight of the audience from the get go in this production of spectacular extremes. It’s certainly Oklahoma! as you’ve never seen it before, or indeed heard it…or once loved it.

Review: RUSALKA at Royal Opera House

A new production of RUSALKAAntonin Dvorak’s 1901 lyric fairy tale with libretto by Jaroslav Kvapil — opened at Covent Garden this week, and it is most definitely one for the eco-age. Created, directed and largely choreographed by the combined talents of Natalie Abrahami and Ann Yee the tale mixes Czech mysticism with the familiar folkloric story of a disenchanted water nymph who longs for her Prince (variously Ondine, Mélisande and The Little Mermaid elsewhere) and gives-up her voice to assume human form.
