Review: MARGOT LA ROUGE/LE VILLI at Opera Holland Park
by Cheryl Markosky - July 22, 2022
What did our critic think of MARGOT LA ROUGE/LE VILLI at Opera Holland Park? You have to applaud Opera Holland Park for not only focusing on money-spinning blockbusters, but for giving rarely performed works an airing. In a double bill of short operas (think bite-sized short story rather than weighty novel), audiences can explore two lesser-known works directed by Martin Lloyd-Evans: Frederick Delius's Margot La Rouge and Giacomo Puccini's Le Villi.
