Abstract
Giuseppe Verdi's masterpiece Rigoletto compelling, blood-curdling and beautiful is being performed for the first time on the Bregenz lake stage. The stage director and designer Philipp Stölzl, known for his successful productions at Salzburg Festival as well as music videos for the German band Rammstein, highlights the striking contrasts between spectacle and intimate chamber drama in his production of Verdis opera.
