Orpheus and Eurydice by Gluck

Spend Valentine’s Day immersed in one of opera’s greatest love stories as Lyster Opera brings Gluck’s Orphée et Eurydice to Platform Arts Geelong — our first ever performance in Geelong.

This moving tale follows Orpheus, the legendary musician, who dares to journey into the underworld to retrieve his beloved Eurydice. Battling grief, the Furies of Hades and the silent trials of love and trust, Orpheus discovers that even the strongest devotion can be tested by fate.

This new production is sung in French with English surtitles, featuring some of Melbourne’s most exciting professional singers.

Creative team:

Director – Jamie Moffat

Musical Director – Pamela Christie

Costumes – Maddy Connellan

Sets & Props – Blair Parkinson

With its hauntingly beautiful score and powerful storytelling, Orphée et Eurydice is the perfect way to spend Valentine’s Day — a celebration of love, loss and the lengths we go to for the one we cherish.

One performance only.
