The mythical Princess Turandot rules her people with an iron fist and a heart of ice. Can Prince Calaf melt her heart, when so many have failed? And what price will he pay?
Puccini’s masterpiece is back with a starry international cast for this classic production. Director Graeme Murphy and designer Kristian Fredrikson’s bold choreography and larger-than-life sets and costumes balance Puccini’s gorgeous swathes of orchestral and choral colour to produce a spectacular night in the theatre.
Hear Elizabeth Connell sing Turandot’s spine-tingling ‘In questa reggia’, Hyeseoung Kwon sing the heart-rending ‘Signore, ascolta!’ and rising star Carlo Barricelli sing that great anthem, ‘Nessun dorma’.
This is romantic opera at its intoxicating best.
Performed in Italian with English Surtitles.
Approximately two hours and forty minutes including two twenty-minute intervals.
