Pelléas et Mélisande - Act I - Scene III

I was a stage hand on this show, 120 hour weeks were not uncommen . it was the show that persuaded me to get a proper job, having said that 17 years later and now ive stopped having the nightmares it was an experience i will never forget

I'm not a exactly a big fan of this rendition of Pelleas et Melisande. Boulez is great conductor, but I feel that are better interpretations of this work, specially, Abbado's one.
Another thing that I don't like it, why does the opera is set in the Edwardian era? How come that the delusion from the medieval times are not respected? Debussy didn't messed with a word of Maeterlinck play, how come they can change the space and time of it?

In setting this opera in the edwardian days, how they explain such a incrogrous and wandering kingdom?
Maeterlnick choose a vague time to give the play a certain freedom from modern conventions, and to give a vague, and wrondous, spetacular if I may say, symbolist and allegorical challenge to us, viewers of the play/opera, to try to imagine, and not to THINK about times and morals, and others stuff related to a specifc time of mankind.

Excuse me, could anyone tell me when was it performed? thank you :)
