Lehar  The Merry Widow

The Parisian embassy of Pontevedro – a poor, but fiercely independent, little European state – is throwing a grand party for the Grand Duke. Among the guests is Hanna Glawari, a widow with twenty million francs from her late husband, and the eyes of half of Pontevedro on her to make sure her fortune – by love or luck – stays in the country to boost its fortunes. But at such a lavish celebration full of champagne, good cheer, and many waltzes, her heart and hand are not the only love affairs underway…

Experience opera of the highest quality on a miniature scale with a specially created 30-minute version of the beloved classic The Merry Widow - the ultimate rom-com.Sung in English and brought to life by a storyteller, two singers, instrumentalists, and a beautiful set of illustrations.
