2021-2022 Operas within Driving Distance (coming soon)
October 9. Benjamin Britten: Billy Budd
This 2014 production was a major hit for the LA opera. Liam Bonner sang the title role and walked the plank to his death, with Richard Croft and Greer Grimsley as Captain DeVere and Mr. Claggart.
October 2. Mozart: La Clemenza di Tito
LA Opera did all their 2018-19 advertising for this production as The Clemency of Titus. This is our second hearing of this performance.
September 25. Debussy, Pelleas et Melisande
Debussy's only completed major opera had a fine performance in Rouen
