Rusalka

Director David Radok and his Rusalka as a fateful drama about unfulfilled desires and human failure, about the contradictory conflict between love and erotic desire, a drama about the sinful human soul. The production will be another contribution to the Year of Czech Music. Since its creation, Dvořák's Rusalka has been one of the most beloved and performed Czech operas, not only thanks to its beautiful and unique music, but also to Jaroslav Kvapil's poetic and timeless libretto, which conceals endless symbolism. The theme is perfect for David Radok, who will create a multilayered production full of strong emotions for the first time in the Czech Republic.

David Radok's set design is based on the concept of Rusalka by set designer Lars-Ake Thessman, presented at the GöteborgsOperan in 2012.
