About Opera Australia: Lakme

An English lieutenant chances on the daughter of a Brahmin priest as she gathers flowers by the water. They should not, they must not, but they cannot help themselves. It is love at first sight. How long can their love survive when they come from such different worlds? Experience the exotic flora, ritual dances and forbidden love in Delibes' Eastern fantasy, Lakmé, starring coloratura songbird Emma Matthews.
