Poster for Intermezzo - Glyndebourne

Intermezzo - Glyndebourne

1983 · 154 min

A stylish, talky operatic comedy of manners that charms with wit and elegance while asking you to follow its rapid conversational flow.

Overview
Richard Strauss' Intermezzo is an autobiographical piece - a domestic comedy of marital strife, told in fourteen scenes. John Cox's stylish production is set in the 1920s and stars Felicity Lott as the volatile Christine Storch. The splended art nouveau settings by Martin Batters by evoke perfectly the luxurious lifestyle of Strauss' Vienna.
