Grimeborn Opera: The Elixir of Love (Re-imagined)

Arcola Theatre, Studio 1, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]

Adina is beautiful, popular and doesn’t believe in true love. Nemorino is geeky, shy and in love with Adina – and with buses.

Friday,

@3.00pm

When Dulcamara turns up selling the latest social media craze – The Love Effect fragrance – Nemorino thinks his dreams have come true and Adina might finally fall for him. But will his dreams go awry when her usual type, the good-looking, arrogant Belcore shows up?

Follow our characters’ entangled love story in this bold contemporary re-imagining of The Elixir of Love story for London life today.

Baseless Fabric return to Grimeborn following 2022’s Carmen (★★★★ Evening Standard, ★★★★ Reviews Hub) and 2019’s sell-out Die Fledermaus (★★★★ The Guardian, ★★★★ The Stage) with a re-imagined score for violin, accordion and bassoon by acclaimed young composer Leo Geyer and a colloquial contemporary English libretto by director and librettist Joanna Turner.

This is a funny, sweet rom com for modern London audiences.

Composed by Gaetano Donizetti
Libretto by & Directed by Joanna Turner
