Les Mamelles de Tirésias, Glyndebourne

The “relief” from La Voix Humaine was this witty rendition of Les Mamelles de Tirésias. Elsa Benoit was Thérèse. Her annoyance and tantrum in front of her husband (played by Régis Mengus) was fun yet provocative. The floating mamellles were delightful. The best part was the appearance of the 40,049 babies on stage! All in all it was surreal, as Apollinaire / Poulenc intended.
