Arias are given visual accompaniment according to a fairly straightforward symbolic scheme, crosses for fear, crows for menace, butterflies for hope. Props are few and mobile – a full sized tank (with a slightly wobbly turret) for the army garrison, an old caravan for the gypsy camp – but much use is made of projections onto the backdrop, usually in silhouettes and shadows.
