NEW-TO-DALLAS PRODUCTION!
Colorful Survival of Man Versus Animal
This is no ordinary fox! Composer Leoš Janáček tells the story of a young fox, trapped by the forester as a cub. She makes a dramatic escape in search of what a wild animal’s life should be, including hunting, true love, and always looking over your shoulder. Australian director Barrie Kosky’s bold and glitzy new production brings vibrant theatricality to this classic story.
In her American opera debut as the Little Vixen herself, Mirjam Mesak brings “her lyrical soprano voice” that “radiates from within” (BACHTRACK) in this production by director Barrie Kosky, who “has an unerring antenna for finding hidden pockets of silliness and tenderness, of humor and pathos” (LOS ANGELES TIMES).
