WNO - Tosca at Bristol Hippodrome on Wednesday 11th April 2018

WNO - Tosca will be performing at Bristol Hippodrome in Bristol on Wednesday 11th April 2018 as well as an extra show on Friday 13th April 2018.

 

Floria Tosca may have many admirers but she only has eyes for one man, the painter Cavaradossi. But the malevolent Chief of Police, Scarpia, has other ideas and wants her for himself. As he schemes to trick the lovers and get what he wants, dramatic and tragic events unfold, leaving Tosca stood alone clutching a dagger in her bloodstained hands, and with a shocking final twist to follow.

The turbulent backdrop of Rome during the Napoleon invasion is an apt setting for this thrilling story of love, lust, loyalty and corruption. Puccini characterises the drama through his exquisite melodies and orchestration, and fabulous arias that have made Tosca one of the best-loved operas in the world.

Carlo Rizzi is conducting the performance on Friday 13 April.

Sung in Italian, with English and Welsh surtitles

 

Tickets availabel from £18.90 to £55.90 including booking fees.
