Step into powerful music.
In 14th Century Genoa, a popular pirate, Simon Boccanegra is elected head of the republic, sparking a decades long political feud between two men. Their poisonous rivalry plays out in power struggles and revenge plots, but underneath it all, they are bound together by the strongest of family ties.
Can reconciliation be found before it is too late?
This is a gripping thriller that isn't just political, it's personal. In Opera North's latest concert staging of the revised 1881 opera, the epic chorus and magnificent orchestra take centre stage immersing the audience in Verdi's powerful music. It promises to be an unmissable event.
Sung in Italian with English subtitles.
