Star director Deborah Warner stages Eugene Onegin, Tchaikovsky’s deliciously intimate yet devastatingly poignant depiction of unbridled passions and unrequited love.

This new production of Eugene Onegin teams Warner with English National Opera Music Director Edward Gardner for the first time since their much-acclaimed 2007 collaboration on Benjamin Britten’s Death In Venice.

Under the guidance of Warner and Gardner, Durban-born soprano Amanda Echalaz, who starred so memorably in the 2010 production of Tosca, returns to ENO to play the impressionable young country girl Tatyana in Eugene Onegin. ENO regular Toby Spence play the tragically self-dramatising poet Lensky, while award-winning baritone Audun Iverson makes his debut with the company as the cynical bity boy who discovers too late that he had true love within his reach.

In addition to Eugene Onegin and Death In Venice, director Warner’s has also staged Handel’s Messiah for ENO and recently staged The School For Scandal at the Barbican theatre.
