Great Performances: Turandot at the Forbidden City of Beijing (1999)
Episode 16, Season 27
Lavish setting. Marvelous production. Thin on sound.

Lavish, authentic setting. Choice of the Ninja-style executioner as a red-flag waving female-- a superb touch! Staging incredible! Overall acting-- a Forbidden City "B". Sound engineering/production-- disappointingly thin (perhaps due to the "outdoor" staging). However, the sound track, featured separately from the stage production on the DVD, was excellent! This DVD also features interviews with principal artists, staging, and captivating behind-the-scenes interviews.
