The opera is based on the dream of a person who involves the audience in their experience. In it, Titania, queen of the fairies, also undergoes a change in her life due to dreaming. The action takes place in an enchanted forest dominated by the Moon and inhabited by fantasy creatures like fairies, elves, goblins, and nymphs. They seek universal harmony but see their magical world suddenly in danger. After the triumph of love and sanity, the original order returns and the cosmos is restored.

Synopsis and more information

The Miraculous Mandarin

Three criminals use a beautiful young woman to seduce and attract men so they can attack and rob them. The first turns out to be poor, as does the second. The third, though, is a Mandarin who seems like a good catch. But when he falls into the trap, no act of violence can do away with him, and his desire for the girl keeps him alive even after he is stabbed. Only when the young woman fulfils his wish and gives him her love does the Mandarin finally die in her arms.

Bluebeard's Castle

Driven by love and curiosity, Judith follows Bluebeard to his castle, where she discovers seven locked doors. As she opens them, each reveals an aspect of Bluebeard's soul: a torture chamber, an armoury, a treasure, a garden, a vast kingdom, and a lake of tears. When she reaches the seventh door, the truth about her beloved is revealed: behind it lie Bluebeard's previous wives, condemned to live in eternal darkness. Judith, trapped by her fate and her desire for redemption, joins them while Bluebeard is left alone in the darkness, resigned to his perpetual loneliness.
