Turandot Opera by Giacomo Puccini

An immersive operatic space that transcends the concept of opera through a sculptural space of light
The art collective teamLab designed the scenography for a new production of Giacomo Puccini’s final opera, Turandot. Together with director Daniel Kramer, they conceived a scenography that fused Kramer’s interpretation of Turandot with teamLab’s art. Over five years of planning, they explored the concept, new interpretations, metaphors, symbols, and how to realize the visual expression of each scene. The cast becomes immersed in, and united with, a sculptural space of light, and the stage and audience continue seamlessly without boundaries.
This production had its world premiere at the Grand Théâtre de Genève in Geneva, Switzerland in June 2022, and the Tokyo performances by Tokyo Nikikai Opera Theatre were held from February 23 to 26, 2023.
