English Touring Opera -
English Touring Opera presents three comic masterpieces of the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries.
Opening ETO’s spring season is Donizetti’s Don Pasquale - a comedy with zest, cream and an Italian accent - in a new production directed by William Oldroyd, with Dominic Wheeler conducting. Keel Watson plays Don Pasquale, a stubborn, competitive, old bachelor - and here a tyrant conductor - who aims to procure a young wife... with disastrous consequences.
- "***** Hike miles to see this. ETO’s staging of Britten’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream is wonderful beyond words. A corker of a show"
- THE INDEPENDENT
One of the most popular, life-affirming of operas, Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro takes place on one day in steamy Seville. This elegant, period costume production by James Conway is revived by dancer-director Bernadette Iglich.
ETO’s hugely successful production of the Britten/Shakespeare A Midsummer Night’s Dream returns, with Michael Rosewell conducting this eerie, highly theatrical score, and a cast led by Jonathan Peter Kenny, Claire Ormshaw and Andrew Slater. In a fairy-haunted wood, lovers’ knots are tangled, and strange dreams create monstrous romances.
