Cesare on tour this Autumn!
We are delighted to announce our next touring collaboration with Pleasure Dome. We are thrilled to be working with our friends at Pleasure Dome again and to be touring CESARE across the South West this Autumn.
Pleasure Dome Theatre Company, Somerset Opera, the Taunton Sinfonietta and the Women's Institute, South West present CESARE after Handel's masterpiece, Giulio Cesare.
Directed by Edwina Strobl (Royal Opera House, Opera Holland Park) and with musical direction and conducted by Noah Mosely (English Touring Opera, English National Opera), this production will leave you feeling inspired!
"Cesare, head of the Parish Council of Romebury, is visiting a neighbouring village for a game of cricket. Romebury are triumphant, and Cesare congratulates the opposition on a well-played match and superlative spread, but upstart Tolomeo is indignant in defeat. Who will win the bake off? Whose vegetables deserve a rosette, and will Cesare be able to navigate village politics and bring peace, prosperity, and pleasure to warring factions? Or will there be blood among the bunting..."
Sung in English with a fresh libretto, this outrageous production will delight avid opera lovers and those new to the genre. Running at 2 hours including interval, and accompanied by the Taunton Sinfonietta, come experience world-class music with a distinctly South West twist!
