Edouard Lalo's 'Fiesque'
A British Premiere presented by University College Opera. 'Fiesque' tells a story of love, jealousy, conspiracy and murder. Set in Italy in 1547, it follows the struggle of Count Fiesque against his city’s oppressive rule; his victory and his ultimate downfall. Lalo’s powerful score brings this tragedy dramatically to life. 10th, 12th, 14th and 15th March.

The Masque of the Red Death
Described as a ghost train for adults this show really is not for the faint-hearted. This haunting version of Edgar Allan Poe's The Masque of the Red Death by critically accliamed company Punchdrunk is sure to leave to spellbound. A theatre production that takes you on a journey into a macabre world, a show like non other you will see. One of the most memorable evenings you're likely to have all year.
