Berg's Lulu is an opera that demands absolute commitment from everyone involved. But the pay-off is one of the most overwhelming experiences in 20th-century theatre; a piece of musical drama that transforms Frank Wedekind's scandalous, sensuous heroine into a figure of mythic power. In 2015, the National Theatre Munich assembled a world-beating team, with the visionary Dmitri Tcherniakov directing, Kirill Petrenko conducting and Marlis Petersen – in the title role – giving a performance of such intensity and power that Opernwelt named her Singer of the Year.
