Tosca at Richmond Theatre
24 February - 1 March
 |
With the City of London Sinfonia and Opera Holland Park Chorus
In the company's first foray outside of the prestigious summer festival Opera Holland Park will be taking its stunning production of Tosca to Richmond Theatre from February 24 - 1 March 2009. When OHP's staging of Puccini's masterpiece was first performed as part of the main season in the summer of 2008, it was acclaimed as one of the finest productions of the work seen in London for many years. The production broke new ground, shedding fresh light on one of the operatic repertoire's most revered works and the return of this electrifying show to the London stage is a landmark event.
