Turandot Tickets

See it if you’re interested in the classic, ornate Zeffirelli production of Turandot — the sort that comes to mind when opera is mentioned.

Don’t see it if you want a novel take on Turandot (particularly regarding its dated Orientalism).

See it if you enjoy great music-Puccini; great staging-Zefferelli by a talented cast with huge ensemble scenes-the Met Chorus, all sung beautifully.

Don’t see it if you are'nt up for a long eve, as there are two lengthy intermissions and lots of subtitles to read, or you dislike culturally dated shows.

See it if The staging was larger than life! Costumes were exquisite. Nessun Dorma is one of my favorites.

Don’t see it if It's very long, so be prepared for that.

See it if you want to see a spectacle and are slightly interest in opera. I'm not a huge opera fan but this is very accessible.

Don’t see it if dated stories bother you, or you just cannot stand the opera ... otherwise it's a must see.
