Calixto Bieito - Verdi Opera


This is the opening scene of a Verdi opera by Calixto Bieito. He is a Spanish theatre director known for his “radical” interpretations of classic operas. I saw this picture and thought the article would be funny. So dead wrong. This opera is full of murder and people rubbing the blood all over their bodies, and someone drowning in a bathtub. As bad as that is, another opera he did had worse in it. I can't even type it. It's a wonder he even got anyone to act in them. He makes one actor drink urine! I don't think I would want fame that badly. And anyone who does should clearly be examined. Yuck, yuck, yuck.
