Mozart’s take on the Don Juan legend and among most people’s top
five operas, Don Giovanni is a work that dresses the dark heart of
the wayward nobleman in a ribald, comic coat but leaves us in no
doubt as to where such behaviour will see us end up.
It is a masterpiece of course, with music of everlasting
greatness. This production reunites Stephen Barlow and Nicholas
Garrett, the director and ‘Scarpia’ respectively from the brilliant
2008 OHP production of Tosca.
Not be missed, indubitably!
