Katya Kabanova [2002]

Opera Theatre Company (2002)
English Touring Opera (2009)

“The singing and acting are impeccable…. The opera has never felt so disturbing or so real”
The Guardian

“…in James Conway’s quiet yet intense staging, the villagers ebb and flow like the waters of the river in which Katya will drown herself.”
The Times

“In James Conway’s fine-grained production the small roles mesh with the larger portrayals, and an articulate use of the chorus creates a closely-defined society where the traditions of the past stifle human feeling and individuality.”
