With Boris Godunov, Olivier Py sets Russia ablaze. This historical drama is transposed today with the illustration of the excesses of power.
Musically, it's perfect. The balance between the voices and the orchestra is magnificent. How could the public remain indifferent to these melodies? He is transported from the first scenes, guided by a very, (too?) – explicit, sometimes almost violent staging. The show never stops oscillating between the predictable and the unexpected. And we are both confused… and captivated.
