The Coronation Of Poppea

Lammermuir Festival’s first opera is Monteverdi’s gripping and shocking tale of lust, power, ambition and betrayal in imperial Rome.

Composed in Venice in 1642, it tells the story of a beautiful courtesan’s ruthless ascent to the throne as Nero’s wife and features some of the most ravishingly sensuous music of the 17th Century.

A sparkling young cast sings in this new production, staged in collaboration with Yorkshire’s Ryedale Festival in a new translation by John Warrack.
