Project description:
In this production of Donizetti’s opera the story was adapted in the Naeples of the 1944. In my design I was inspired by the wooden shutters of the houses of Neaples. The stage was rather small and the stage depth was vey short, therefore I tried to obtain an illusion of depth by using frames of shutters with different angles. By opening some of the shutters and by changing the stage lighting we created different backgrounds for different scenes. The main colour of my scenery was white and we painted it in the colours of warm Mediterranean sunlight of Neaples by the help of the stage lights
