Staged by Keith Warner who has worked at major opera houses including Bayreuth, Covent Garden, Vienna etc. Stage designer David Fielding has worked at important opera houses and with bands including the Pet Shop Boys Giordano's music is verismo of the very highest caliber and drives the high voltage plot forward with breathtaking speed.
