Following last year’s visually stimulating production ofDon Giovanni, Mid Wales Opera returns in 2013 to celebrate the centenary of one of the country’s greatest composers – Benjamin Britten. In collaboration with Opera Theatre Company, Dublin do not miss this unique opportunity to enjoy the Britten’s classic comic depiction of village life, Albert Herring.
It is time for the sleepy villiage of Loxford to choose a May Queen but none of the village girls quite fit the bill.
“Country virgins, if there be such, think too little, and see too much”
So now all eyes focus on Albert, from the greengrocer’s, pure and innocent as they come. Surely the perfect candidate to be Loxford’s first May King? However when Albert is slipped a little something in his victory glass of lemonade things take a turn for the worse…
One of the composer’s most perfect gems – witty and irreverent – this comedy opera is bound to bring a smile to your face…
