Christopher Loy’s lavish production of Strauss’ opera about opera receives its first revival after its successful debut last season. As the casts of a serious opera and a harlequinade are suddenly thrust together at the whim of their rich patron, comedy and mythology collide to spectacular effect.

Unlike film, theatre doesn't have an official age classification organisation. That means all age
recommendations are subjective and should be treated as guidelines unless otherwise stated. With this in mind, we
ask you to use your judgement in regards to a show’s suitability prior to purchase. However, we are more than happy
to help you make a decision. Please email ticketing@officiallondontheatre.com to find out more about
