[Einhorn] managed to pull off this updating of the plot in often compelling, not to mention humorous and some ever so slightly vulgar, ways. He’s not the first director to put an unhappy, unsettled spin on the operas ending, but Einhorn strongly underlined how none of the four central characters would ever be the same, how deeply wounded each one was by what happened during the experiment. In a persuasive touch, Einhorn showed one of the women discovering the wicked scheme earlier than the libretto has it.
