THE BURGLAR'S OPERA
Monday, January 27, 2020 at 5:07PM | Stephen Wyatt Exciting news. 
Just confirmed - our London debut!
Opera della Luna present
The Burglar's Opera
2nd – 5th September 2020
UPDATE: NOW POSTONED TO SPRING 2021
Opera della Luna return to Wilton’s Music Hall with a hysterically funny ‘new’ comic opera by Jeff Clarke and Stephen Wyatt, based on a short story by W S Gilbert and set to a sparkling score of music ‘stolen’ from Sullivan’s rarely heard but delightfully tuneful orchestral works.
Originally premiered in 2008, when it won four-star reviews and toured nationally, this new staging is revised specially for Wilton’s and will include the accompaniment of Opera della Luna’s twelve-strong instrumental ensemble.
The story charts the rise and fall of Septimus Belvawney, from his education at Eton, via his glittering social success as patron of the Society for Providing More Bishops, to his final demeaning downfall!
