La Scala: See The Stars Again at State Cinema Hobart
La Scala: See The Stars Again
FRI 5 FEB
Coming Soon to
State Cinema Hobart
The opening of the opera season at La Scala is the biggest event in the Italian musical calendar. Every year on December 7, the day that Milan celebrates Saint Ambrose, the city’s patron saint, the theatre premieres an eagerly anticipated new production— but not in 2020. This season was to have opened with Donizetti’s ‘Lucia di Lammermoor’, with Lisette Oropesa set to have been the first American to sing a title role in the gala season opener since Maria Callas in 1951. But instead, with Milan on lock-down, the theatre assembled an extraordinary cast of over 25 of the world’s most in-demand opera and ballet performers for SEE THE STARS AGAIN (…a rivedere le stelle) a glittering spectacle of music, dance and art, performed with no audience but the 2.6 million Italians who tuned in live at home, and those in cinemas worldwide.
