Thrapston Plaza Opera ..........................................................
Opera not for you? Thrapston Plaza Opera think it is...
Thrapston Plaza Opera invites you to their forthcoming production of Donizetti’s comic opera The Daughter of the Regiment at The Thrapston Plaza on 21st, 22nd and 23rd February 2018.
Following recent hugely successful performances in 2017 of Tchaikovsky’s Eugene Onégin and in 2018 Verdi’s
La Traviata, both well loved romantic tragedies, the contrast this season couldn’t be greater!
If, for some, Grand Opera is
heavy going, The Daughter of
the Regiment is a light hearted,
fun filled farce from start to finish
yet boasting some of the most demanding arias in the whole operatic repertoire.
In brief, a young orphaned girl, improbably adopted by a whole French Army Regiment, falls in love with an older man. Her distant aunt appears forbidding the love liaison and takes her away. When found again, her true identity as a rich heiress is revealed so her marriage can proceed.
If you thought an Opera could never make you laugh, come and enjoy this most amusing production.
Tickets: Adult £15 (£12 concession before 1st Feb), Child £6, from TPO Box Office: 01832 733586
