The Elixir of Love
The Elixir of LovePresented by Saffron Hall
The beautiful and popular Adina is completely out of Nemorino’s league. Shy and sincere but desperate to catch her eye, the arrival of the smooth-talking Doctor Dulcamara and his apparently miraculous concoctions provides the perfect opportunity to change his fate. But Nemorino soon discovers that matters of the heart are rarely so straightforward.
English Touring Opera presents Donizetti’s sparkling The Elixir of Love in a new production from Martin Considine, Artistic Director of the pioneering Streetwise Opera. Packed with warmth, romance and effervescent music, The Elixir of Love is a classic romantic comedy in which what people think will make them happy, and what will actually make them happy are not always the same.
Performed in English with English surtitles
