What’s on
Diva Opera – La Traviata
Diva Opera, Britain’s foremost chamber opera company, is set to return to the magnificent Marble Hall to perform Verdi’s La Traviata.
In Verdi’s opera, Courtesan Violetta Valery turns her back on the luxurious life of a kept woman when she finds real love with Alfredo Germont. But under pressure from his father, she renounces that love to redeem their family honour. Violetta surrenders all hopes of happiness and of reviving her failing health. She is reunited with Alfredo just before she dies, leaving the cynical and hedonistic Parisian society to ponder on the immensity of her sacrifice. Starring Gabriella Cassidy as Violetta, Robyn Lyn Evans as Alfredo and Philip Smith as Giorgio Germont.
This event is in aid of Norfolk Churches Trust.
