“How do you solve a problem like Mozart’s gorgeous yet deeply flawed final opera, ‘La Clemenza di Tito’? If you are Opera Boston, you solve it with a smart modern production directed by Brad Dalton that takes a dark-comedy approach to the action.” – T.J. Medrek, Boston Herald
“Brad Dalton’s light-footed production deftly balances period and modern touches with simple yet effective sets and modern costumes that give the assassins a sleek look as they slip under the curtain to pursue their prey.” – Jeremy Eichler, The Boston Globe
“Opera Boston’s ‘La Clemenza di Tito’ soars. The production gives us sets that look modern but also decidedly Roman. To Opera Boston, well done all around for a superb rendition of this Mozart masterpiece.” – Paul Joseph Walkowski, OperaOnline.us
