"The first night has to be one of the most depressing evenings I have ever spent at Covent garden. Bad from a production point of view and not much better musically.. Why update it. It's hardly a new idea setting it in the 50s. Richard Jones did the same sort of thing at Glyndebourne a couple of years ago. He did it better? And to thinik I had the temerity to criticise Graham Vick's production. This is another production that I will never see again.
