Süddeutche Zeitung: “Creating a lively production is a challenge in the Martini Park interim quarters of the Augsburg State Theater with its reduced stage technology. For Verdi's "La traviata," director Eva-Maria Melbye solved the problem with movable wall segments from which large, round openings were cut out. These segments provide elegance in the ball scene with cool architecture, are showcases for the nightclub scene at the finale of the second act, and are a sickroom for Violetta. Whether they are loosely distributed or as a wall in the front of the stage, allowing views through the openings, they always suggest a depth that the stage space actually does not have, and thus open up scope for the ensemble.” Oct. 2022
