Into a War Zone, Tawdrily Table Dancing.

My Guardian review of Tim Albery's messy staging of Wagner's Tannhäuser, which returns to Covent Garden for its second revival.

I wish I liked it more, as it's a favourite opera, though there are some fine individual performances, not least Gerald Finley's Wolfram and Lise Davidsen's Elisabeth
