Cinderella is reimagined as brilliant, though unrecognised fashion designer Angelica, in the employ of her step-father, the renown, social-climbing, vain and shoddy Don Magnifico. While Prince Ramiro is a stifled fashionista in search of a new look.

Figaro strikes again in Rossini's The Barber of Seville. Boy gets girl, Dr Bartolo gets a haircut and Figaro gets paid!

 

 
El Kid.
 
 

El Kid is a mash-up of the classic Billy Goats Gruff and Carmen, all wrapped in colour and humour.

 
 
By the Light of the Moon.
 
 

By the Light of the Moon, is an operatic reworking of The Owl and The Pussycat, with nonsense poetry, nursery rhymes and tunes from much loved operas combined with whimsy and humour in an exuberant new production.
