2012 MELBOURNE PERFORMANCES
Franz Lehár
Amelia Farrugia and David Hobson star in a sumptuous new production of the world’s favourite operetta. There will be song and dance and lots of fabulous frocks. And will Hanna and Danilo stop squabbling for long enough to realise that they are in love? Let’s hope so.
Rodgers & Hammerstein
South Pacific returns to Australia in a Tony Award-winning production starring Lisa McCune, Teddy Tahu Rhodes and Kate Ceberano.
Giacomo Puccini
An exquisite production, Japanese soprano Hiromi Omura in the title role, and Puccini’s desperately romantic music… When Butterfly sings you will fall in love with opera, whether it’s for the first time, or the fiftieth. We promise.
Gaetano Donizetti
Emma Matthews stars in a new production of Donizetti’s great bel canto showpiece. Expect vocal fireworks from an international cast in this atmospheric take on Sir Walter Scott’s thrilling tale.
Richard Strauss
Richard Strauss’s Salome caused a sensation when it premiered. It has been shocking and enthralling audiences ever since. Now Gale Edwards directs a new production starring Cheryl Barker as the ultimate femme fatale.
