New National Theatre: Rossini’s Opera “The Turk in Italy” Unofficial
New Production, 2 Acts (Performed in Italian with Japanese and English subtitles)
2026/10/07(We.) 14:00 Starting
Rossini’s opera buffa *The Turk in Italy* makes its long-awaited debut at the New National Theatre. The story depicts a romantic tug-of-war between Selim, a playboy Turkish prince; his free-spirited wife, Fiorilla; and her bewildered husband, Geronio. The new production, directed by Roland Perry, is based on the concept of a “photoroman”—a melodramatic novel featuring photographs and speech bubbles—and creates a stylish stage space where the two-dimensional world and reality intertwine. The production features Alessandro Bonato, a rising star from Italy, as conductor, alongside a cast of today’s most talented and sought-after singers, including Claudia Muschio and Alejandro Barinas Viejes. Rossini’s masterpiece, renowned for its exquisite ensemble work and comedic structure, is brought back to life in spectacular fashion from a fresh perspective. We invite you to fully enjoy the unpredictable twists brought about by the meta-theatrical structure, along with a host of charming and delightful staging elements that are a feast for the eyes and ears. You’ll be able to fully savor the conclusion of this story—a tangled web of love and hatred—accompanied by exquisite music.
