Time might have forgotten them but this stage performance reminds us the wives were all once very much alive. They had stories to tell, secrets to whisper. Before they were royalty they dreamt of how it would be, just as you and I would have done.

There really isn’t a moment when we believe there is going to be a happy ending, but the incredible music keeps us sitting in the carriage as we careen perilously towards the inevitable train wreck of an ending.

The play within the play cascades into a convulsive and inexhaustible tirade of production catastrophes, miscues, prop malfunctions, wardrobe clangers, and more.
The opening night of Rinaldo showed unmistakeably that baroque opera, even so-called opera seria, can be fun.
