In stormy Manchuria, Japanese spies infiltrate the Russian army command, a young widow makes the officers’ blood race, and a nauseating German reporter who tells corny jokes attempts to ensnare the saucy, smart-mouthed daughter of the general.
Created by the extremely successful Jewish-Czech composer Jaromír Weinberger, Spring Storms was premiered in Berlin just ten days before the National Socialists seized power. The curtain soon fell permanently and irrevocably on this idiosyncratic operetta. Now, 87 years later, it is lifted again in Barrie Kosky’s new production.

The STORY
Part One
At the Russian army’s headquarters in Manchuria, officers are planning an imminent attack on the Japanese enemy. Despite the tense situation, Lydia Pawlowska, a young widow from St. Petersburg, is hosting a ball that evening. The Russian commander-in-chief General Katschalow refuses to accept the invitation due to political circumstances, although he is in actual fact upset that Lydia has rebuffed his advances. His confidant, Colonel Baltischev, head of the military secret service, sees through this. Although he suspects Lydia of espionage due to her prewar connections to a Japanese officer, he himself has set his eyes on her.
Using a false identity, the German war correspondent Roderich Zirbitz has sneaked into Russian headquarters in search of information. However, he is quickly exposed and must fear General Katschalow’s wrath. The general’s daughter Tatjana makes eyes at Roderich. Noticing this, Katschalow puts her under house arrest and forbids her to attend Lydia’s ball.
Lydia herself appears to change the general's mind about attending the ball, succeeding with disarming directness. She recognizes the Japanese Major Ito, the very officer who courted her in St. Petersburg, who is now disguised as a Chinese servant in order to spy at Russian headquarters. Though opposed by the war, their previously stifled passion flares up again.
General Katschalow unwittingly disturbs a conspiratorial meeting between Ito and two other Japanese spies, who end up overwhelming him. Lydia comes back, accompanied by numerous Russian officers, turning the tide. This plunges Lydia into a moral conflict, since Ito and his followers face the death penalty. She suppresses her conflicting feelings and continues to act as a charming hostess. Ignoring her father’s ban, Tatjana sneaks into the ball, where Roderich, disguised as a Chinese magician, continues to make a pass at her. Escaping confinement, Ito seeks refuge with Lydia, who hides him from Colonel Baltischev and his followers. Ito confesses his love to Lydia again.
Part Two
So as to pass through enemy lines to get his comrades and himself to safety, Ito needs the password. Lydia promises to get hold of it by inviting General Katschalow to an intimate tête-à-tête after the ball. When she tries to coax it out of him, Katschalow gets suspicious and gives her a fake password instead of the correct ‘Spring storms’. Lydia tries to stall Katschalow for as long as possible, but having given the wrong password, Ito is caught. Believing Lydia to be the General’s mistress now, he is furious about her betrayal. Ito is doomed to die. When Katschalow hints that he might let him go if Lydia actually gives in to his overtures, she hesitates and then agrees.
Some time later, everyone meets again at a hotel in San Remo for peace negotiations. Katschalow has fallen out of favour with his superior, Grand Duke Mikhailovich, for releasing Ito. The Japanese Major, on the other hand, has been promoted to the position of colonel and is now his national delegation’s negotiator in San Remo. Meanwhile, Roderich has kidnapped Tatjana from the Swiss boarding school in which her father had placed her. They have also ended up in San Remo, where Tatjana has to hide from her father.
Lydia has come to save Katschalow's reputation. Even though the Russian general proved to be a gentleman by not asking for anything in return for Ito’s liberation, she does not deny the rumours. Katschalow asks for her hand in marriage, which she gives him, much to his surprise. Shortly afterwards, however, she runs into Ito. After settling their misunderstandings, Lydia hopes for a future together with him, turning poor Katschalow down once again. But when Lydia meets a Japanese woman, who turns out to be Ito’s wife Sayuri, she realises that her plans to be with him are impossible. Meanwhile, Roderich and Tatjana have married secretly and ask the enraged Katschalow for his blessing. Lydia mollifies him and finally accepts his offer of marriage. Ito looks after her wistfully before following Sayuri.

КОМИШЕ ОПЕР БЕРЛИН
Композитор Яромир Вайнбергер - оперетта «Весенние бури», музыкальный руководитель и дирижер Джордан де Соуза, режиссер-постановщик Барри Коски.
В своё время премьера оперетты прошла под лозунгами: "Последняя оперетта Веймарской республики возвращается!" Оперетта, созданная чрезвычайно успешным еврейско-чешским, а затем американским, композитором Яромиром Вайнбергером, состоялась в Берлине всего за десять дней до того, как национал-социалисты захватили власть. Скоро занавес обрушился на эту оперетту. Теперь, 87 лет спустя, он снова поднят и спектакль появился в новой постановке Барри Коски.
По сюжету действие развивается в период Русско-Японской войны 1904-1905 годов. СОДЕРЖАНИЕ ВЫШЕ ПО-АНГЛИЙСКИ.
