Drama, passion and fabulous music combine in Jonathan Kent’s production of Giacomo Puccini’s much-loved classic Tosca.

Set against the turbulent backdrop of 19th century Rome, it tells the story of the painter Mario Cavaradoss, who agrees to help the fugitive Angelotti escape. Attracting the attention of Scarpia, the sadistic Chief of Police, Cavaradossi is captured and tortured within earshot of his lover Tosca.

Puccini’s dramatic work was a hit with audiences on its 1900 premiere and it remains one of the most performed of all operas.

The production is sung in Italian with English surtitles.
