Powder Her Face

Last performance this season

In English language with German surtitles

The first opera written by the multi award-winning English composer Thomas Adès is the third Volksoper production to be staged at the Kasino am Schwarzenbergplatz. The piece centres on Margaret Campbell, Duchess of Argyll, a woman synonymous with scandal. Living in a hotel in her old age, she reminisces about her many love affairs and separations. A vicious social satire about the amorality and decadence of the upper class and public voyeurism.
