Swansea City Opera present The Pearl Fishers at Blackwood Miners’ Institute on Wednesday May 26 at 7.30pm.
Opera has something for everyone. If you enjoy music, theatre, film, dance or the visual arts, you’re sure to find something you like in this amazing art form. Opera is a mixture of singing, dancing, stage design and elaborate costuming that anyone can enjoy.
A fishing village in ancient Ceylon (Sri Lanka) is the setting for Bizet’s steamy tale of friendship, loyalty and forbidden love. The Pearl Fishers, Georges Bizet’s most popular opera, contains a seductive score with one of the most famous and beautiful operatic duets ever written for tenor and baritone. It is beautifully performed in English by some of the finest singers and orchestral players in the country.
Tickets cost £12 with £10 concessions.
Blackwood Miners’ Institute is also offering under 18-year-olds special £1 tickets to encourage them to experience opera.
