The notoriously picky L'OperaDou jury gave this production the grade of "A." That is an astonishing verdict considering that half of that jury usually are persons who speak French as their mother language. So this "A" would perhaps translate into an "A+" on this website. But for now we accept the verdict of "A." Please help us by writing a comment that we can place here as a mini-review of this title.
