Summary/Abstract: A review of Richard Strauss's Woman without a Shadow, directed by Krzysztof Warlikowski (Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich, premiere: 21.11.2013). The author reads the staging of the folk-tale-based opera through Jungian psychoanalysis. Opening the collective (sub)conscious, in her opinion, is mainly affected by the transformation of the set design and the relations between characters. Krzywicka-Kaindel notes the diversity of media used (film and animation), as well as the suggestive sound of the singers and the orchestra.
