Semele Tickets - London
After being placed into his luxurious home as Jupiter’s lover, former servant girl Semele can’t believe her good fortune. Juno, Jupiter’s wife, however, concocts a devious plan for revenge that threatens to bring ruin to her husband’s pretty young lover.
This fresh and bold production of Semele - Handel’s English-language masterpiece returns to London at the Royal Opera House, following a sell-out season in Paris, directed by Oliver Mears.
The much-anticipated latest installment of Handel in Covent Garden series is strange, uncanny, and darkly satirical. Pretty Yende stars as Semele, alongside Ben Bliss, making his Royal Opera debut as Jupiter, Carlo Vistoli, Brindley Sherratt, and Alice Coote also star, conducted by Christian Curnyn.
