Richard Strauss's 'Arabella' is a lyric comedy that portrays crumbling of the late-bourgeois values.
Strauss's orchestral opulence coupled with its period Viennese setting has seen 'Arabella' perceived as a light-hearted comedy, but Tobias Kratzer's multi-faceted production explores the disunity between its characters, spotlighting tensions that connect 19th-century Vienna to the present day.
