Sarah Schinasi has succeeded in imposing her name in the very closed universe of the opera scene. For more than twenty-five years, she has been touring the world’s stages. She rehearses at the TNN in the Chat en Poche with Muriel Mayette-Holtz, a hilarious play by the scriptwriter Anat Gov.
How many women claim the title of opera director? Very few, in fact, because the opera scene is still predominantly male. However, the Anglo-Saxon world seems to be an exception to this rulee with three directors who have reached the firmament of their art: Deborah Warner, Katie Mitchell, and Fiona Shaw.
Needless to say, to succeed in this unforgiving world for women, it is necessary to show exceptional talent.
