Quote BSO:
In Pyotr I. Tschaikovsky’s last opera Iolanta, a blind princess searches for the reason for her sadness and finds love. In Igor Stravinsky’s neoclassical one-act comic opera Mavra, a bright young woman has a risky idea and smuggles her lover, disguised as a chef, into her mother’s house. Director Axel Ranisch combines these two works and creates a fairy tale about growing up, family and love as well as about knowledge and self-determination: Mavra and Iolanta becomes Mavra/Iolanta
