Don Giovanni prides itself in being a dramma giocoso. Not an easy expression to translate, given how starkly contradictory the terms would appear to be. But dig below the surface and you are plunged into a delightful swirl of ambiguities. Nothing here is set in stone: the libertinage is passionate, but couples meet and part. Fate plays tricks with masks, right up until the final challenge.
Mozart: Don Giovanni was directed by Stéphane Braunschweig.
Mozart: Don Giovanni runs for 2h 30min, and was released in 2016.
