Trying to remember about an Opera stage

[jimothy]

Here's a hard one for the combined genius of the PH collective...

I remember seeing a picture of the stage built for an opera. It consisted of an open book, held open by a skeleton, and one of the pages of the book was the stage. It was custom built over some water somewhere in northern europe (I think it was Helsinki).

Does anyone remember this, what opera, where it was, got a picture etc.

Nothing like an easy question... :D

Opera was Masked Ball by Verdi.

It wasn't an opera based on Grieg's "Peer Gynt" suite by any chance?

Nah, just a good memory and a liking for Verdi.
