Andrea Breth

Andrea Breth is a stage director, particularly known for her work in opera. She is currently directing a production of Giacomo Puccini's 'Turandot' at the Oper Frankfurt. This production is newsworthy because Breth and conductor Thomas Guggeis have chosen to present the opera in its uncompleted form. Furthermore, composer Lucia Ronchetti has created a prologue to precede the opera's overture, adding another layer of artistic interpretation to Breth's vision. Breth's interpretation of 'Turandot' is described as unsettling and focused on the monstrous fairytale aspects of the princess. The production premiered on April 12th and is being discussed for its unique approach to the classic opera.
