Offenbach - La Belle Hélène (Felicity Lott with Les Musiciens du Louvre, Marc Minkowski) | Act 2/3

From the Theatre du Chatelet, Paris,
Laurent Pelly’s production of Offenbach’s parody of the origins of the Trojan War combines a musically superb performance with a stream of visual humor that flows from his core idea that the action all takes place in the imagination of a sleeping, sex-starved, suburban housewife.
