On March 16, 19, 21, and 23, Lise Lindstrom reprises her acclaimed portrayal of the title role in Richard Strauss’ Elektra at Teatro Filarmonico di Verona.

Recognized for her commanding interpretations worldwide, she has earned high praise from critics, with Huffington Post hailing her as “a perfect Elektra” and Operawire noting, “Never does she let us out of her grip.”

She joins a distinguished cast, including Anna Maria Chiuri as Klytämnestra, Soula Parassidis as Chrysothemis, Peter Tantsits as Aegisth, and Thomas Tatzl as Orest.
