SUMMARY:IOpera: Michael Nyman's 'The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat' Tickets
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to announce that our next production is a 40th Anniversary staging of Michael Nyman‘s operatic adaptation of Oliver Sacks‘ best-seller neurological case study THE MAN WHO MISTOOK HIS WIFE FOR A HAT (1986) \nClosely following his story\, the one-hour opera explores the mind of “Dr. P\,” a professional opera singer and music teacher\, for whom the world has been rendered visually incomprehensible as a result of a degenerative neurological disorder. \nRunning for just on an hour\, the opera explores both common preconceptions about dementia-related illnesses and the extraordinary ways one afflicted man and his wife cope.  Nyman’s lyrical score demonstrates all the accessible and appealing qualities that he later also exhibited in his music for Jane Campion’s The PIano (1993). \nFor this production we welcome back three of Australia’s most accomplished operatic performers: Elena Xanthoudakis\, Christopher HIllier\, and Robert Macfarlane\, and a chamber orchestra (including members of the Invictus String Quartet). \nThree performances only\, all in the intimate surrounds of the Athenaeum II Theatre\, 188 Collins St\, Melbourne. \n   Friday 20 March\, 7:30 pm \n   Saturday 21 March\, 5:00 pm \n   Saturday 21 March\, 7:00 pm \nTICKETS: $69 – $49 \nTickets are otherwise available through Ticketmaster: https://www.ticketmaster.com.au/michael-nyman-s-the-man-who-mistook-his-wife-for-a-hat-tickets/artist/4163359

SUMMARY:IOpera: A Season of Opera in English - The Turn of the Screw
DESCRIPTION:A Season of Opera in English\n\n\nThis September IOpera presents a short season of two operas in English–The Old Maid and the Thief (a satirical comedy by Gian Carlo Menotti)\, and The Turn of the Screw (a gothic drama with music by Benjamin Britten and a libretto by Myfanwy Piper\, after the novella by Henry James). \nEach is an operatic gem in its own right. Performed together the two works also reveal several shared dramatic interests\, such as how love can drive us to do foolish things\, and how our sense of reality is\, well\, not always what it seems…. \nBenjamin Britten’s opera\, composed in 1954\, is a gripping setting of the famous novella by Henry James of strange goings-on in a remote English manor house. There\, a young governess has been employed to care for two children—Flora and Miles—but she quickly discovers that nothing is quite as it first seems. As she struggles to protect the children from increasingly sinister forces that seem to surround them\, her sense of what is real and what is not becomes thrillingly blurred. \nThe Turn of the Screw stands as one of the most successful operas of the past hundred years.  Its evocative music\, scored for a chamber orchestra of 13 players\, brilliantly captures the psychological tension and eerie ambiance of this classic gothic tale. \nThe cast includes some of Australia’s most accomplished operatic performers\, including Elena Xanthoudakis\, Lee Abrahmsen\, and Robert Macfarlane. \nCast:\nThe Governess: Elena Xanthoudakis\nPrologue and Quint: Robert Macfarlane\nMiss Jessel: Lee Abrahmsen\nMrs Grose: Amanda Windred\nFlora: Breanna Stuart\nMiles: Roberta Diamond \nStage Director: Robert Macfarlane\nConductor: Peter Tregear\nStage Manager: Maria Woolford \nWednesday\, 17 September\, 7.30pm\nSaturday\, 20 September\, 4.30pm \nAthenaeum 2 \nTICKETS: $69 – $29 General Admission

SUMMARY:IOpera: A Season of Opera in English -
DESCRIPTION:Gian Carlo Menotti’s wittily satirical and sharp comedy of suburban manners and forbidden desire! \nOriginally written for radio in 1939\, this masterful one-act work has since gone on to be one of the most performed of twentieth century operas\, full of the kinds of dramatic and musical bravura that made Menotti arguably the most successful composer of opera in English of the past century. \nA fast-paced opera buffa\, it cleverly exposes the secret desires of two residents of a small town whose world is unexpectedly turned upside down by the arrival of a handsome stranger. Their once rock-solid concern for social propriety quickly falls away in the presence of this object of desire. But who exactly is he? \nDelivered by a cast of rising operatic talent. \nMiss Todd: Saskia Mascitti\nLaetitia: Teresa Ingrilli\nBob: Nick Beecher\nMiss Pinkerton: Lisette Bolton\nNarrator: Daniel Felton \nStage Director: Lisette Bolton\nConductor: Peter Tregear (18 September) and Christopher Hillier (20 September)\nStage Manager: Maria Woolford \nContent Warnings: This opera includes loud and sudden noises\, partial nudity as well as light sexual references. \nThursday\, 18 September 7.30pm\nSaturday\, 20 September 1.30pm \nAthenaeum 2 \nTICKETS: $69 – $29 \n\nBook tickets

SUMMARY:Melbourne Opera: The Marriage of Figaro
DESCRIPTION:Mozart’s profound and sublime Marriage of Figaro is set on the wedding day of Susanna and Figaro in the home of the Count and Countess Almaviva. What ensues is a crazy day full of twists and turns as the servants outwit the Count who has dishonourable intentions toward Susanna. Mix this in with a page boy crazy with hormones\, a couple hell bent on revenge against Figaro\, a nosy music master\, a naughty schoolgirl\, a drunk gardener\, and a noble Countess who is much wronged and you have a comedy of intrigue\, misunderstanding and transcendent forgiveness.\nThe Marriage of Figaro\, sung in English\, is being performed by members of the Richard Divall Programme\, Melbourne Opera’s exceptional programme for emerging and developing opera singers. These two performances offer a sneak look at a performance usually staged in private clubs and homes. \n\n\n\nFully costumed in the style of Downton Abbey\, directed by Suzanne Chaundy and with a chamber orchestra under the baton of Raymond Lawrence and Greg Hocking\, this is a unique opportunity to see our future stars of opera in an intimate staging. \nCast \nFigaro                           Henry Shaw\nSusanna                       Caitlin Weal\nDoctor Bartolo              Alex Pokryshevsky*\nMarcellina                     Amanda Windred\nCherubino                     Rachael Joyce\nCount Almaviva            Daniel Felton\nDon Basilio                   Asher Reichman\nCountess Almaviva      Emily Szabo\nAntonio                         Andrew Alesi\nDon Curzio                   James Penn\nBarbarina                      Lily Ward \nGuest artist* \n\nSunday  17 March  3pm\n\nAthenaeum Theatre 2 \nTICKETS: Adult $49.00–$75.00; Concession $30;   General Admission

SUMMARY:Firebird Trio: Folksongs and Fantastical Tales
DESCRIPTION:Words and music mingle in this final Firebird Trio concert for 2022. We perform the Spanish folk music of De Falla\, a Schubertian setting of a Swedish folk melody\, and two iconic movements from Gershwin’s folk opera Porgy and Bess. Our pianist Benjamin Martin contributes a playful trio version of Ravel’s Mother Goose Suite and to finish the year\, Firebird Trio pays homage to its namesake with Stravinsky’s ballet music – the Infernal Dance of King Katschei who is bewitched by the magical Firebird. This concert can be enjoyed in a Live Studio audience at the Athenaeum Theatre or online through the Australian Digital Concert Hall. \nWednesday 23 November 2022 8:30 PM – 9:30 PM \n\nAthenaeum 2 Upstairs\n188 Collins Street\, Melbourne Vic 3000
