La Traviata review: Not quite the perfect ending to a fine season

★★★☆☆
La Traviata is the last show in what has been a triumphant season for the Irish National Opera. The company's productions have featured inspired design (most recently in the brilliantly realised L’Olimpiade, now heading to London), canny directorial decisions (for instance, transposing Cosi fan Tutte to revolutionary Ireland), and some stunning singing.
