ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE

Marvellous performance. But quite unique the stage sets!
Gorgeous production, with some rapturously beautiful music. But also some dreadfully noisy, meandering parts. Scotto is way past her prime to do justice to this role which calls for a rich, steady voice rather than the shrill and colorless screeching she does throughout.
