A consequence of the difficult economic conditions and the need for a level of austerity in Argentina, as well as possibly another well-publicised issue, the Teatro Colón’s 2024 season was announced ‘unseasonally’ late (in February, rather than the usual previous November) and at least for opera, it is leaner in number with a focus on revivals of past popular productions and more use of local rather than visiting artists.
