“The Navigator”

Australian opera was performed in Moscow, during Chekhov International Theatre Festival.

June 25, 26, 27
Fomenko Theatre

“The Navigator is a part-opera, part-theatre, part-contemporary music performance that draws inspiration from the Indian epic the Mahabharata and the legend of Tristan and Isolde. The result is a provocative and visually delicious work which feels more like an erotically charged fashion show in a dollhouse than an opera.
With five singers and 16 instrumentalists driving the performance, it plunges from moments of sublime beauty and clarity to the dark, disturbed and the erotic. Kosky has filled this work with bold, experimental choices that are likely to divide audiences, bringing the intensity and power of opera together with the power of the visual aesthetic”.
