Il trittico

The three one-act operas are often performed separately, but Puccini saw them as a unitary path from darkness to light, the final effect of which is much more powerful than the simple sum of their parts. Il Trittico will be directed by Pinchas Steinberg, in his welcome return to the Regio. The new staging designed by Tobias Kratzer reinterprets the triad in modern key, enhancing the differences and, at the same time, creating cross-references and connections. The protagonist of Tabarro and of Gianni Schicchi will be the baritone Roberto Frontali, while Elena Stikhina and Anna Maria Chiuri will play the roles of Suor Angelica and the Aunt Princess.
