  1. you have never seen anything like it
  2. how often do you get to hear a Mozart ‘premiere’?
  3. your friends will make fun of you if you don’t
  4. you have never seen an opera set in Limbo, performed at a Cathedral, featuring extremely musical ghosts
  5. you thought Bramwell Tovey had no sense of humour
  6. you like beautiful sound framed in a bizarre and witty tale
  7. gorgeous costumes
  8. frightening lighting
  9. you have never attended an opera where the heroine does not die at the end, coughing or jumping

Is There A Sneak Preview?

“I am thrilled to work with City Opera, and to make my stage debut in an opera. They have written a great character, and I hope to bring him to life without attracting too much attention from Salieri. This will be terrific fun.” – Bramwell Tovey
