Anna Nicole [LE]
Opera by Mark-Anthony Turnage and Richard Thomas
The Royal Opera commission from composer Mark-Anthony Turnage, librettist Richard Thomas and director Richard Jones adds Anna Nicole Smith to opera's gallery of tragic women. A pneumatic "Playboy" model who married an octogenarian billionaire, she flirted with global fame before falling fatally prey to its allure and corruption. With its jazz-coloured score and Eva-Maria Westbroek's starry performance, this tragicomic take on the extremes of celebrity culture is, as the "New York Times" said, "an engrossing outrageous, entertaining and ultimately deeply moving opera".
