Jonathan Miller’s now-classic production of Così Fan Tutte, contemporary and urbane in its staging, returns to the Royal Opera House.
Classical opera meets contemporary style in this ever-popular staging of Mozart’s Così Fan Tutte that brings its look and its relevance right up to date. But Jonathan Miller’s production for The Royal Opera also focuses on the timeless themes of a drama that sees two men test the loyalties of their girlfriends to breaking point. Part comedy, part tragedy, it is a wry study in love, manipulation and trust. Music by Mozart is poignant and stoic, heartfelt and romantic, and includes several famous arias and ensembles.
Conductor Julia Jones who recently led Così Fan Tutte at the Vienna State Opera to great acclaim, makes her Covent Garden debut. Be prepared for the most sublime singing and acting from a young and dynamic cast which brings out all the subtle changes of their circumstances and volatile emotional responses to the power play in which they are caught.
Così Fan Tutte is sung in Italian with English surtitles.
