Summary
Patrick Lange conducts Opera North’s production of Verdi’s Rigoletto at Leeds Grand Theatre, featuring baritone Blake Denson in the title role alongside Jasmine Habersham and Sir Willard White.
Why it's fantastic
Verdi’s dark thriller features some of the most recognisable melodies in opera, including the famous La donna è mobile. This production delivers a gritty story of power and revenge, anchored by the legendary Sir Willard White and a cast that brings high-stakes drama to life over three gripping acts.
