| Performance Notes | Staged fully in the round, this production transforms the Royal Albert Hall into 1940s Paris. The gaiety of the station café, the bitter cold of the police checkpoint and the harsh reality of the students stark surroundings, all beautifully depicted and brought to life in every detail. For this production, internationally recognised and award-winning creative partnership of director Francesca Zambello (three Olivier Awards and two Evening Standard Awards for Best Musical and Best Opera) and set designer Peter J. Davison has created a riot of colour and movement. The vibrant 1940s Parisian café society style expertly contrasts with the sparse, cold setting in the garret where you can almost feel a chill in the air. (Sung in Italian with English subtitles)
