A Masked Ball of Giuseppe Verdi is a true opera masterpiece. Almost quintessential for this music genre. It is filled with beautiful music, and as regards the libretto it tells a dramatic story of love, jealousy, conspiracy and crime, which take place against the background of court chambers and with a climax during the title ball. But there is even more – a peculiarity which connects this masterpiece with Szczecin. One of the earlier versions of the plot was telling a story taking place in a castle in Szczecin! It is hard to imagine a better place for performing it in Poland than the seat of the Opera at the Castle.

"Famous for the momentum of his productions and courageous stage visions, the director has not disappointed the audience".

"Instead of looking for metaphors to contemporary politics as other directors do, [the director] betted on the attractive visuals".
