TL;DR

Early raves for Missy Mazzoli’s The Galloping Cure at the Edinburgh International Festival frame it as a bold, darkly comic take on the opioid crisis: a decaying town, a showman’s carousel, and a chilling price for relief that includes harvesting organs such as hair, eyes, kneecaps and tongue. Praised for its eclectic, multi‑layered score and striking visuals, the production is described as deeply integrated and stunningly realized, with critics calling it among the greatest/defining operas of our time and the reviewer saying he is blown away.
