Royal Opera House, Covent Garden Piazza, Covent Garden, WC2E 9DA

Theatre: , Tragedy, Opera

How Much: £6.00 (Lowest Price)
At the opera we like nothing more than a good tragedy, and this first production of Dvorak's work at the Royal Opera House certainly delivers on that front.

In a modern updating of this mythologically inspired opera, the tragic tale of a water nymph is transported to gloomy city back-alleys, adding an even darker element to the story.

Sung in Czech with English surtitles.

Please note: lowest prices at the ROH are usually £6 but prices have not yet been released for the winter season, check back on the website for details.
