Five performers wearing eccentric blue and gold costumes, wigs and make up pose inside a gold frame. The frame has roses lining the bottom and has lightbulbs around the sides.

You won’t be able to stop yourself from falling in love with this comedy opera where Puccini meets Elvis.


The greatest hits of opera in one night. This is a show for everybody – from opera buffs to those who don’t know their Aida’s from their arias.

World class singers combine physical comedy, opera classics and pop hits, from Whitney Houston to Mika and Sinatra to Elton John. Experience all the comedy, tragedy and melodrama of opera with this outstanding Spanish company.

A spectacular love story filled with colourful characters: Alfredo, a worn-out tenor with a glorious past; Enrique, the baritone precise in his macho swagger; Franelli, a quirky, pop-loving counter-tenor; Maria, a dreamy and naive soprano; and Carmen, a wild mezzo soprano.

The Opera Locos is totally unique, wildly passionate, and utterly hilarious.

Joyous to see an inter-generational audience enjoying and having fun together. Great to see opera being so accessible.
