Review for Ambassador Theater International Cultural Center, Alexandria, VA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Dear Hanna,

Bravo!

In 19 years in America, this is the second time only in which I felt like standing in ovation after a show. The first time was at the Metropolitan, forThe Dialogue of the Carmelites, in 2004 (the version shown at the Kennedy Center last year was rather flat).

Your show, that I came to watch mostly for professional deontology, was excellently performed, translated, and adapted to America. The last sentence usually means "simplified", 'banalized" etc. On the contrary, the adaptations were apropos. They rendered the piece more intelligible, without depriving it of original force .
The oneiric/hallucinated scene of praise to Antonia was impressive indeed.
I will follow all your shows hereinafter, because I sense that your company will be able to capture their essence with the same sensibility revealed for this one.

Regards,
Bernardo Piciche
