La Fille du Far West, by Giacomo Puccini, is staged by Marie-Ève Signeyrole in a tense, close-up production that turns the frontier bar into a psychological thriller. Conductor Antonino Fogliani leads a powerful, cinematic score that contrasts triumphant American myths with their darker, violent edges. Adapted from David Belasco’s drama, the cast explores desire, honor and revenge amid the gold-rush fervour, with vivid staging, orchestral drama and intense ensemble work.
Sung in Italian with French and English surtitles.
