Eugene Onegin at Kelvedon Hall

Advertisement

A weekend of opera in the Old Rose Garden to celebrate Henry Channon's great love of opera.

Wild Arts is delighted to return to Kelvedon Hall with two operas - Tchaikovsky's romantic love story Eugene Onegin, directed by former Shakespeare's Globe Artistic Director Dominic Dromgoole, and Donizetti's dreamy, sun-kissed comedy The Elixir of Love, set in an Italian seaside village in the 1950ies and performed in a mischievous new translation.

The performances will take place in a beautiful large marquee that will span the Rose Garden Amphitheatre, with grass embankments and perfect acoustics. The operas will be fully staged, in costume and sung in English by a cast of exceptional singers, with a chamber orchestra of 10 top musicians, conducted by Wild Arts' Artistic Director Orlando Jopling.


Saturday 28 June
6pm Eugene Onegin

You are welcome to arrive from 4pm to set up your picnic in the gardens, and bring food, drink, rugs, chairs, tables, friends, and candelabras. You will be ushered into the Rose Garden for the performance at 6pm, and there'll be 90-minute picnic interval at approximately 7pm - 8.30pm, before Act II. Curtain down will be at approximately 9.30pm, and you are welcome to stay after the show to enjoy a drink with the Wild Arts company.
