The Teatro Real presents, after 113 years, Ariane et Barbe-Bleue. The opera by the impressionist composer Paul Dukas is based on the famous tale by Charles Perrault – just like The Castle of Bluebeard – and will feature stage direction by Àlex Ollé (La Fura dels Baus). A captivating production that questions perceptions of freedom and individual will, with talents such as Paula Murrihy and Silvia Tro Santafé in the cast.
