On the 3rd of September we threw open the doors of the Coliseum for a unforgettable night.
Action directed by Tom Nelson, Poetry by Ian McMillan, video mixing/directing Lottie Gazzard · Samples of the ENO autumn season in a single night · Live extracts from the operas · Singing along with members of our chorus · Speed dating an opera character · Sampling the literary delights from our resident poet · Voting for your favourite character in a balloon debate · Flirting with Don Giovanni and Musetta · Running screaming from Méphistophélès · Drinking the elixir of life with Emilia Marty
A fantastic opportunity to try bite-sized chunks of Opera.
