Lighting designer Gabriel Bethune balances boldness with gloom alongside the evening’s fading light glimpsed through the hall’s many arched windows above, and smoke effects add misty intrigue.

Part of what made this work so effectively was Gabriel Bethune’s lighting design, which was tremendously atmospheric throughout the opera. The hall as such disappeared as we’re transported to another realm of spotlights and shadows.
