ROYAL BALLET & OPERA: THE TALES OF HOFFMANN
ROYAL OPERA
Four women: four curious love stories. Juan Diego Flórez leads a fantastic cast in Offenbach's dream-like opera.
£18 (£17)
This revival of Schlesinger’s beguiling production of Offenbach’s opera has an excellent cast of singers and, in Evelino Pidò, a conductor alert to the work’s mercurial shifts of mood
The Guardian
It's an extraordinary work, definitely worth catching in the late, great film-director John Schlesinger's insanely sumptuous, near-definitive 1980 production on its last outing
