Opera Brava presents Tosca

Tosca by Puccini

Giacomo Puccini’s romantic opera Tosca is a tale of passion and jealousy as its heroine Tosca, a fiery opera singer, fights to save her lover Cavaradossi from the villain of the piece, the police chief Scarpia.

Tosca is one of the most lethal operas. None of the central characters make it to the end alive, hero or villain. Unsurprisingly then, it's a thrilling melodrama often dismissed as one dimensional. However you would be foolish to go in with this attitude. Opera Brava have set this production in Rome in the 1940's during the war and they take Puccini's overtly theatrical tale and make it astonishingly moving with an unusual twist in the final death scene.

Doors open at 6.00pm with the show beginning at 7.30pm. We recommend that you bring a chair or picnic blanket to sit on. You can order an operatic picnic here or bring your own refreshments. You can buy Prosecco, wine and ale, soft drinks and snacks including Brickells Ice Cream on the night.

Tickets £35 per adult, £10 per child
