Palau de les Arts 2019-20 Review: Elektra
- Doris Soffel gave a luxurious interpretation of Klytämnestra, dressed as a Hollywood actress in a white satin night gown and singing most of the scene on her bed.(...) As such, her interpretation was dominated by contention, making this tortured and remorseful character deeply unstable and creating a suffocating tension between her and Elektra.
