When it comes to Partenope’s love life, complicated doesn’t quite cover it. Settle in for Handel’s first operatic rom com, where all isn’t fair in love and war.
This critically acclaimed production won an Olivier Award for Best New Opera Production when it premiered in 2008. Since then, it has been seen all around the world and returns to the London Coliseum for its second revival.
Finding The One isn’t easy. Especially when you’re tangled up in a tricky love quadrangle.
Join our social butterfly Partenope and her three potential suitors – Arsace, Armindo and Eurimene – in this timeless tale where boys meet girl, girl falls for boy, and another ‘boy’ is really a girl looking for revenge on a boy… keeping up?
Find out if love is on the cards and if honesty wins, in this complex game of romance, where not everything (or everyone) is as it seems.
English National Opera
Originally the Sadler's Wells Opera, formed at the turn of the century by Lilian Baylis, the company was renamed the English National Opera in 1974. The ENO was the first British opera company to tour the United States (1984) and the first major foreign opera company to tour the former Soviet Union (1990). In 1992, the company acquired the freehold to the London Coliseum, and after a four-year restoration programme moved into its new home in 2004.
