Probably the best production because it’s probably complete & taken seriously. It’s an ensemble not a chorus work.
I liked the batterie de cuisine (kitchen utensils). It reminds me of, in Hervé, before Monty Python, banging a saucepan to gain admittance.
I’ll watch “Jacqueline” again. the Jacques Offenbach Society
