Orpheus In The Underworld

Synopsis:
Offenbach's musical satire of Napoleon III's Paris features some of the wackiest situations in all opera. Rory Bremner's new translation updates this tale of Orpheus' journey to the underworld to our media-savvy, celebrity-obsessed society. Some of the catchiest tunes ever written carry the characters from one ridiculous scenario to the next, culminating in the famous 'cancan'.

Notes:
by Jacques Offenbach

Respectable Wedding, A

Synopsis:
