22 September – 19 October

Is love a tragedy or a farce?

This autumn, the Royal Opera House brings to the stage a new production of Mozart’s witty exploration of the nature of love.

Two young women seem devastated when their boyfriends appear to go to war. But shifting scenes and situations increasingly throw them into an emotional spin as the men, in disguise, try to win each other’s fiancée as a bet. The initial fun provokes serious consequences as this ‘school for lovers’ teaches some harsh lessons. Will it all end in tears – or laughter?

Exciting young European director Jan Philipp Gloger directs an all-star cast in this classic Italian opera, including Corinne Winters in her Royal Opera House debut.
