La traviata tells the story of Violetta Valéry, a venal object of desire in Parisian society, who finds love in Alfredo but gives in to his father's social conceit and separates from him. In his spectacularly juggling production with huge video walls and social media, Simon Stone transposes this story to the present day. Violetta, that is a Parisian It-girl, an influencer who remains trapped in the Instagram bubble and whose life is at the mercy of the virtual presentation and show greed. Lonely in the public sphere, she is an outsider.
Lisette has given 32 performances as Violetta Valery.
