BELLE HELENE, LA DVD
Staged and costumed by Laurent Pelly, this production Offenbach's parody of the origins of the Trojan War is a supreme manifestation of his comic genius. It combines a musically superb performance with a stream of visual humour Dame Felicity Lott is magnificent as the woman who dreams of being the most beautiful woman in the world. The production explodes with gaiety and invention throughout and ""is as innocently filthy as only the French can manage"" (The Times). Lott adds an undeniable elegance and sings with ""Mozartian refinement"" (Herald Tribune).
