Welsh National Opera present their riotous new version of Donizetti’s classic comic opera Don Pasquale at The Courtyard on Thursday, June 13.
Set in and around Pasquale’s doner kebab van, it’s the story of an old bachelor’s romantic delusions and the young lovers who outwit him.
Don Pasquale brings together a cast of larger-than-life characters, including Pasquale’s young nephew Ernesto and his girlfriend Norina, as well as local geezer Malatesta and his travelling band who hang around Pasquale’s kebab van after their long nights of boozing.
Playing the lead role is baritone, Andrew Shore. He has performed with all of the major opera houses in the UK and internationally including; the Metropolitan Opera New York, La Scala Milan, Paris Opera, San Diego Opera and Lyric Opera of Chicago, to name just a few.
Audiences can upgrade their tickets for £7.95 and enjoy Prosecco and sweet canapés during the interval.
Don Pasquale will be at The Courtyard on Thursday, June 13 at 7.30pm. To book, call the box office on 01432 340555 or visit courtyard.org.uk
