OperaUpClose

Following the hugely successful production of La Bohème by OperaUpClose at the Carnegie Theatre & Arts Centre in Workington last year, Rosehill on the Road is delighted to be returning with this exciting and Olivier Award-winning company's production of Donizetti's The Elixir of Love.

Adina is the hottest star in Hollywood and Nemorino adores her. When an ambitious army officer makes a very public proposal to Adina, Nemorino is in despair until Dulcamara, the smooth-talking stylist, comes to his rescue with a remedy which he promises will win Adina once and for all.

Donizetti's warm-hearted opera fizzes with wit, great tunes and keen-eyed dissection of the way love can confound even the cleverest of us. Director Valentina Ceschi sets The Elixir of Love at a glamorous 1950's Hollywood garden party, with a new English libretto by Thomas Eccleshare, winner of the 2001 Verity Bargate Award for Pastoral.

Supper is available from 6pm - £15 two courses.
