La Fille du Régiment

Opera by Gaetano Donizetti

Direction and costumes: Laurent Pelly
Stage: Chantal Thomas
Light: Joël Adam
Choreography: Laura Scozzi

There are not many operas that take place in Austria. Donizetti’s buoyant La Fille du régiment is one of these: the action takes place in the Tirolean mountains during the Napoleonic wars. However, the military surroundings of a French regiment serve merely as a parody for a tender love story between camp follower Marie and Tirolean partisan Tonio. Laurent Pelly’s beloved production of this masterwork – a piece known
both for its famous melodies and the extreme demands it makes of the singers – returns the stage of the Vienna State Opera after an absence of six years (Source: Wiener Staatsoper)
