On Saturday last 8th June v2013, I attended an excellent production of La Traviata at the Gaiety Theatre Dublin, it was Directed and Designed by Lyric Opera Production’s founder and General/Artistic Director Cav. Vivian Coates. Wardrobe Supervisor: Jeanette Tumelty with Costumes credited to Triple C Costumes and Flame of Torbay, Lighting Design by Alastair Kerr, Hair and Make-up Design Ali Murphy The scenographic interpretation and staged presentation worked a treat, the set, while being visually strong in making its own statement; it remained proportionally unobtrusive in supported and anchored the space for the performance to take place in. Collectively and individually the performances were charged with emotion, energy and radiance, they were spellbinding to witness and listen to. The concept of setting the story in "Occupied France" was novel (to me) and the splendid design solution starting with the unveiling of the set for act I, right through to the dramatic, heart breaking end of act IV was more than satisfying. The edgy, "Berliner Club" raunchiness of act III’s opening, with the menacing image of the Nazi logo hanging in the background was riveting. For more see: stagebrace.blogspot.ie/
