On April 9th, Lucia di Lammermoor co-produced by NCPA and Mariinsky Theatre made debut at Beijing Tianqiao Performing Arts Center, unveiling NCPA Opera Festival 2017.
For director Yannis Kokkos, Lucia di Lammermoor inspired by Scott's novel presents a female character blinded by paranoid love, family feud and social and familial pressures.
To add up the crazy and cruel stage atmosphere, red was selected as the main colour by director Yannis Kokkos to deeply explore the emotional power of Donizetti’s opera.
The image of the deer runs through the whole plot. In Scottish culture, the deer evokes the cruelty of hunting, which echoes the tragic theme of this opera.
