Bastien and Bastiena

I realised something wasn’t right. This is a comic sitcom-opera about two bereaved people who can’t (under)stand each other. The cunning and wise know-it-all Kolas takes it upon himself to help them, whose character was inspired by Viennese doctor and hypnotist Anton Mesmer, under whose order the opera was written. Although the original opera was created in the 18th century by twenty-four-year-old Mozart, director Dmytro Todoryuk interpreted the production for a modern audience.
