The best of Handel's opera as you've never heard it before.

An Average Joe rescues a glamorous opera singer's beloved dog. They fall in love. The end? As our leading lady makes her way in the music business, this tale of 'boy meets girl' reveals that all's not fair in love and opera.

This evening of sublime beauty sees opera performed as never before, intertwining the most ravishing of Handel’s arias and duets into a hilarious - and at times deeply moving - romantic comedy.

Featuring: ‘Ombra mai fu’ - Xerxes, ‘Va tacito’ - Giulio Cesare,‘Piangero’ - Giulio Cesare, ‘Lascia ch’io pianga’ - Rinaldo, ‘Ah Stigie Larve’ – Orlando
