This is a touring production of our much-beloved Mansfield Park by British composer Jonathan Dove. It is a period-perfect opera that brings Jane Austen’s world to life with charming wit and stunning music. Directed by Rebecca Meltzer, this production has received widespread critical acclaim and has had three sold-out runs at Waterperry Opera Festival over the years.
Accompanied on the piano by Music Director Ashley Beauchamp, 10 singers perform as an ensemble of loveable characters pulling at our heartstrings and making us laugh out loud.
This intimate production brings audiences right into the centre of the action. Perfect for Austen and music lovers alike - be prepared to be whisked away in a perfect evening's light operatic entertainment.
