VERDI'S FALSTAFF

Venue: The Auditorium

Mid Wales Opera
Verdi’s Falstaff

Full of boisterous vulgarity, yet nobly magnificent Falstaff is Mid Wales Opera’s latest operatic offering. Shakespeare’s Sir John, now very short of cash, pursues two wealthy wives of Windsor for their money, but does not bank on their determination to foil him. Their merry tricks lead to his come-uppance, and to the chastisement of their own, too jealous, husbands. Intertwined in all is a tender love story. With Verdi’s lyrical melodies and sparkling orchestration, this opera is a joy. A true ensemble work with tricks, disguises and a love of life, Falstaff inspires the passionate admiration of opera lovers everywhere.

Mid Wales Opera is proud to announce the company debut of their new Artistic Director Nicholas Cleobury who has chosen Martin Lloyd-Evans to direct and Bridget Kimak to design this brand new production of Verdi’s final comic masterpiece. Accompanied by the Mid Wales Opera Chamber Orchestra, the band of singers assembled by Nicholas bring fantastic voices to the colourful array of characters.

Those who love life at its richest, cannot help but love Falstaff in all its glory.
