REVIEW: The Barber of Seville

Reading Time: 2 minutesIn an uproarious fusion of Rossini's classic opera and Wild West antics, Charles Court Opera's rendition of "The Barber of Seville" at Wilton's Music Hall is a rollicking good time. Directed by the irrepressible John Savournin, this production transports the tale of love and deception from the cobbled streets of Seville to the dusty plains of the late 1800s American frontier, infusing it with a generous dose of English wit and charm.

REVIEW: ENO’s The Magic Flute

Reading Time: 4 minutesThis production of Magic Flute, collaborated with ENO, Dutch National Opera, and Festival d’Aix-en-Provence, is of no exception. The medley of everything – Mozart's music, the ENO orchestra, the cast and ensemble, as well as the video and foley artists – creates a unique and irreplaceable chemistry.
