"Fidelio"

An imaginative and flexible re-structuring of arguably the greatest opera ever written.

The glorious music is sung in the original German, while the spoken dialogue is given an ingenious new slant.

Instead of an English translation, this new production tells the story from Leonore’s point of view, as she reads extracts from her memoirs, "Leonore’s story", in her book-reading tour.


Tickets:
Location & time: 3 different venues.
