In a small town in 1950’s America, a guitar-playing, hip-swivelling stranger rides his motorbike into town. Is he The Devil In Disguise or a Hound Dog in his Blue Suede Shoes?

tue 1 - sat 5 december Die Entführung aus dem Serail Tue & Sat 7.15pm Don Pasquale Wed & Fri 7.15pm Don’t miss Glyndebourne’s return to Woking with two diverse operas, stunning costumes and imaginative productions, all underpinned with breath taking music and performances from the next generation of opera stars. Donizetti’s Don Pasquale A lively comedy about an old bachelor’s romantic delusions. This vivacious comedy is about an old bachelor flattered into seeking a younger wife in the hope of taking revenge upon his nephew. The story is brought to life with opulent period staging and joyful music. A revival of Mariame Clément’s ‘handsome and clever’ (The Daily Telegraph) production. Mozart’s Die Entführung aus dem Serail An elegant story of cultural collision between East and West. The fiancé of a young Spanish noblewoman in the clutches of a Turkish despot, seeks out to rescue her. The opera’s East/West clash and its surprising resolution defies all stereotypes and strikes a startlingly contemporary chord.
