Journey to the underworld and back. Gluck’s heartbreaking opera follows the grieving Orpheus into the jaws of Hades to rescue his beloved Eurydice. He must complete his quest without looking back, or lose Eurydice forever.
Awe-inspiring acrobatics meet Gluck’s exquisite music in a genre-busting production, a sell-out hit of the 2024 Sydney Festival. Projections seamlessly integrate surtitles into the action on stage, as brilliant singers from Opera Australia come together with the trailblazing circus artists of Circa, one of Australia’s most successful cultural exports.
In this visually stunning production, Circa’s Artistic Director Yaron Lifschitz has created a mesmerising experience, exploring the intersection between love and death that is the beating heart of Orpheus & Eurydice.
