At the end of the 1800s, London was the most important political and economic centre in the world and the entire set design reflects this idea of wealth and power. The story takes place in the apartments of the upper middle class, represented through moving panels, transparent, covered by richly coloured curtains and completed by décor elements that help the audience identifying the different locations. The costumes, beyond the identification of the different characters, establish a bond with their activity through modern and vivid styling: the audience will assist in a story that is still today current, full of vitality and emotion, directed by Irina Sabristova. The accessories are studied with attention to detail: hats, jewels, ties, elegant shoes and create a vision of opulence in the scenes, catching the imagination of the audience. The music is a constant in the background: chosen to introduce the public to the historical period in which the story is set,  to transmit the emotion of the scenes; intensifying strong themes such as love, betrayal, deceit, and to ease the tension in more romantic and lighter movements. The acting is studied to make the story accessible to the students and the main events are marked in a significant way through the interpretation of the actors in order to make clear the intentions of the characters. The female characters, far away from being mere complements of male scheming, obtain strength and are strongly motivated. Elegance, vivacity and clarity are the keywords of this staging.
