BAREFOOT OPERA’s vibrant, energised new production pulls at the heart strings with a dynamic take on Verdi’s classic tale of love, loss and sacrifice in this years Young Artists Tour – La Traviata.

Living life on her own terms, glamorous Violetta falls in love with the young poet Alfredo. But their intoxicating romance takes a devastating turn when Violetta’s past life catches up with her, and she’s forced to sacrifice what may be her only chance of real love. And as Violetta battles a serious illness…will it be too late?

A lunchtime concert featuring arias and duets sung by our talented young artists. 

Last year our formal West Green House Opera Young Artist Covers Programme commenced, which allows us to extend the invaluable mentoring of young artists at this most important stage in their early careers. In addition to the principal cast members, thanks to the generous sponsorship of our patrons, we are now able to offer a second cast of principals the chance to learn a completely new role, not only the musical score but also the dramatic presentation, shadowing the principal cast throughout the rehearsal and performance period. The programme culminates with a showcase in London in July, to which the artists can invite colleagues and industry professionals who they want to see their work and this year, for the first time, a lunchtime concert during the opera season to showcase their talents at West Green.  And if ever one of our principals cannot take to the stage, our cover artists will be fully prepared to take over……this is often how the stars of tomorrow are born!
