Theatre Packages
Ruddigore
Opera North at Nottingham Theatre Royal
Saturday, 13th March 2010 at 19.30
(Opera package from £275 per couple)
New production. Gilbert & Sullivan’s witty burlesque Victorian melodrama is one of their most inventive confections. When mild-mannered Robin Oakapple is revealed as the villainous Sir Ruthven Murgatroyd, inheritor of the curse of Ruddigore (he must commit a crime a day), his romance with the faultlessly virtuous Rose Maybud looks doomed. But his troubles really start when he proves singularly unequal to the task of fulfilling the curse, and his ancestors’ portraits begin to haunt him
Blood Brothers
Nottingham Theatre Royal
Friday, 9th April 2010 at 19.30
(Theatre package from £235 per couple)
Willy Russell’s, Blood Brothers tells the moving tale of twins who, separated at birth, grow up on opposite sides of the tracks, only to meet again with tragic consequences. The score includes Bright New Day, Marilyn Monroe and Tell Me It’s Not True.
Few musicals have received such acclaim as the award-winning Blood Brothers which recently celebrated its 21st year in London; no wonder it is ‘The musical for all time’.
Riverdance
Nottingham Royal Concert Hall
Sunday, 16th May 2010 at 20.00
(Theatre package from £260 per couple)
The legendary Riverdance continues its Farewell Tour across the UK in 2010, which marks the 15th anniversary of the show described by the Hollywood Reporter as ‘the sort of spectacle and experience that comes along once in a lifetime.’
Of all the performances to emerge from Ireland in the past decade, nothing has carried the energy and the spectacle of Riverdance. Experienced by over 19 million people worldwide across 4 continents and boasting a worldwide television audience in excess of 1.75 billion people – Riverdance is a truly global phenomenon.
Maria Stuarda, Gaetano Donizetti
Opera North at Nottingham Theatre Royal
Wednesday, 30th June 2010 at 19.30
(Opera package from £275 per couple)
New production. The centre piece of Donizetti’s historical opera is a clash that never took place, between Elizabeth I and Mary, Queen of Scots. Charting events leading to Mary’s execution, Donizetti courted controversy by treating such powerful material, and the opera was initially banned. Maria Stuarda is one of Donizetti’s most dramatic and affecting works, and with Sarah Connolly and Antonia Cifrone battling out as the rival queens, fireworks are forecast
