La Traviata At Glyndebourne

Directed by Tom Cairns, with Zach Borichevsky as Alfredo and Irena Dubrovskaya as Violetta, La Traviata is a story that never fails to wrench your heart with its heartbreaking drama, glorious music and dance. The story of Violetta and her immense sacrifice for the man she loves is as real today as it was when the opera premiered in 1853. This flawless Glyndebourne production is striking in its simplicity: an uncluttered stage that always focuses on Violetta and the power of her misunderstood love for Alfredo. Every movement, every sound … indeed every moment is a work of sublime art. An unforgettable experience for every age and every taste.
