We are nothing if not classy and ready to rise to a challenge at the OAE, so for one night only we bring all the style and revelry of the opera house to an east London inn.*
18th Century performers were pretty astute at spotting that one way to increase your audience ratings was to bring the operatic hits of the day to the gig. In that noble tradition, our flautists, Lisa Beznosiuk and Neil McLaren have compiled a potpourri of arrangements of Mozart’s opera arias and trios by Hoffmeister and Haydn…
We even stage our revival of the 19th Century’s favourite comic opera (and we’re sure it’s yours too), Zampa by Ferdinand Hérold… complete with narration! Don’t forget to leave a review.
*The OAE in no way advocates for pubs as a replacement for actual opera houses. Both are essential in a thriving society and need protection.
