I thought people should be made aware that Mariusz Trelinski, the Polish theatre, opera and film director is currently staging two shows at WNO. His work is poetic, bold and highly contemporary, and grounded in a very strong process. His staging of Manon Lescaut fights the sentimental and romantic tendancies in Puccini's score to brilliant effect and his new production of Boulevard Solitude, which is a C20th jazz inspired piece, is 1.5 hrs of great theatre.
