Heritage Opera

Tosca is a dark tale of passion, blackmail and murder, set against the stormy backdrop of the Napoleonic wars. It tells the dramatic story of Floria Tosca, an operatic diva in love with Mario Cavaradossi, a dissident in Regency Italy. Mario helps an escaped political prisoner, attracting the unwelcome attention of Baron Scarpia, the ruthless chief of Rome's secret police..

Set in 1800 Rome, Tosca is performed in a brand new English translation, with sumptuous ‘Directoire’ style costumes and accompanied once more by the supremely talented Benjamin Cox at the keyboard.

A delightful two or three course set menu is available from the Coach House Restaurant before the performance.
