Tosca amid Opera North treats

Puccini’s devastating take on passion and power, Janáček’s celebration of the cycle of life and Strauss’s playful look at what happens when tragedy and comedy collide, all feature in Opera North’s new season at The Lowry in Salford in March.

Edward Dick’s production of Puccini’s Tosca is on March 9–11.

Janáček’s The Cunning Little Vixen takes a very different look at life and loss on March 7.

Strauss’s Ariadne auf Naxos, a first for Opera North, completes the season March 10 in a co-production with Gothenburg Opera.
