Summary
Robin Ticciati leads the London Philharmonic Orchestra and a cast including Rachel Willis-Sørensen in Strauss’s Ariadne auf Naxos at Glyndebourne.
Why it's fantastic
This clever comedy delivers two shows for the price of one by forcing a serious opera troupe to perform alongside a rowdy comedy act. It is the perfect choice for anyone who suspects that high art takes itself a little too seriously, balancing heartfelt singing with moments of genuine slapstick.
