Mariusz Treliński
Director
A benchmark production...a hallucinatory nightmare...Treliński walks the razor’s edge between the explicit and the implied, and he does it so well that we are soon unsure of what we have seen. Did that wallpaper just move? Is that a vision of Christ or a demon? Is she mad, or are we? A heady mix of drugs and psychosis in an underworld of glittery perversion sucks us all into Renata’s vortex
A successful return to the stage for La Monnaie with Die tote Stadt, an explosive production served by a flamboyant cast
...Mr. Treliński’s take is more theatrical. It tells the story in detail, using multiple spaces and video, and inserting some extra psychological layers along with an updated setting, which gives the excellent performers something to work with and keeps the audience engaged
Director Mariusz Treliński brings both classical and contemporary aesthetics to opera productions, his background as a film director informing unique cinematic interpretations of the repertoire. He receives frequent invitations from prestigious opera houses across the world and has served as Artistic Director of Polish National Opera since 2008.
