This one-act opera by Richard Strauss is presented here by NorrlandsOperan and the Catalan theatre art collective La Fura dels Baus. This production is unique in that it is an outdoor performance. Due to the use of cranes, mechanics, and special effects, this production is NorrlandsOperans largest and most complex production yet. “It was macabre, shocking and powerful in its great simplicity.” (Kulturkorren)
