Intro
Turandot – Making-of (2)
Talk with videographer Eckart Reichl
Director Marie-Eve Signeyrole not only focusses on the action on the stage itself, she also uses the power of high-definition cameras. Her aim is to bring the drama and the action as close as possible to the audience. Video projections and live cameras add an additional layer to the drama, the audience's gaze can be directed towards small details and special moments – a perfect way to show the deep emotions at play in this opera.
