Turandot | sold out!

Experience Puccini's masterpiece “Turandot“ in a unique production by Claus Guth at the Vienna State Opera!

Immerse yourself in the world of “Turandot“, a dramatic melodrama in three acts that tells the story of the dangerous love between the Mongolian Prince Calaf and Princess Turandot. Under the direction of Claus Guth, this story is transposed into a surreal, bureaucratic world in which Turandot sets up a state of terror to protect herself from the horrors of her past. The stage by Etienne Pluss, the costumes by Ursula Krdina and the choreography by Sommer Ulricksen form the framework for a story that oscillates between ceremony, grotesque and deep emotional connection. Experience Puccini's mesmerising music, including the famous aria “Nessun Dorma“, in a Puccini Peking that offers a blend of European and Far Eastern sound cues.

Secure your tickets now for “Turandot“, an opera that oscillates between relentless system and the power of love!
