Così Fan Tutte - London, May 2015
Join Opera Lyrica on the 9th, 10th and 11th May at the 20th Century Theatre in Notting Hill, London (map below) for a revival of our most successful production to date - Così fan tutte.
Two young officers make a bet with their friend Don Alfonso that their girlfriends are different to other women as they are faithful to the end. Don Alfonso insists that all women are the same, and concocts a plan in which the two men pretend to be called to war and come back in disguise to seduce the girls. With the help of an overbearing maid (and the very fickle nature of the two young ladies), a chaotic story of deception, suspicion, seduction and silliness ensues...
This production will be in Italian with English surtitles.
The 20th Century Theatre is Notting Hill's best kept secret: a beautiful grade 2 listed English Heritage building with a rich history in music and performance. Click here for more information. In conjunction with Opera Prelude, there will be a pre-performance talk at 5.45 pm on 11th May, given by William, Paola and Nicholas. Tickets can be booked by following the 'book tickets' link below.
