Venus

This was one of Negrin’s most successful shows ever. The unknown but hugely effective piece, the great cast, the impressive designs, and a concept that truly believed in the piece, all contributed to the rave reception the production received. A performance was broadcast on TV. This was the start of a fruitful relationship with the opera in Geneva, under Renée Auphan, which would be the base for Francisco’s evolution.
