Santiago Ballerini returns to Teatro Regio di Torino for performances of Puccini’s La Rondine on November 17, 19, 22, 26. The theater inaugurates the 2023 season with a new production by Pierre-Emmanuel Rousseau that shifts the action to 1973 to pay tribute to the 50th anniversary of the new Regio and to evoke the glamour of the years of Yves Saint-Laurent, Brigitte Bardot, Romy Schneider and Alain Delon.
Francesco Lanzillotta conducts the Orchestra e Coro Teatro Regio Torino and a star-studded cast, including Olga Peretyatko as Magda, Valentina Farcas as Lisette, Mario Rojas as Ruggero Lastouc, Vladimir Stoyanov as Rambaldo Fernandez, Matteo Mollica as Périchaud, Pawel Żak as Gobin, Rocco Lia as Crébillon, Amélie Hois as Yvette, Irina Bogdanova as Bianca, and Ksenia Chubunova as Suzy.
