Royal Opera House, Antonio Pappano, Richard Jones
In a tragic-comic take on the extremes of celebrity culture, composer Mark Anthony Turnage, librettist Richard Thomas and director Richard Jones add Anna Nicole Smith to operas gallery of bad, sad girls. A pneumatic Playboy model who married an octogenarian billionaire, she achieved grotesque fame before her destitute, drug riddled death. With its jazz-coloured score and Eva-Maria Westbroek’s starry performance, this is, as the New York Times said: an engrossing outrageous, entertaining and, ultimately deeply moving opera.
“It’s a tremendous show…shocking it isn’t; stunning it is!” (The Independent)
“The more Turnage and his librettist, Richard Thomas, pile one cringe-making scene upon another, the harder it is to look away…the whole cast is excellent…” (Gramophone)
