Tosca
Work:: Tosca (S2107)
It is the eve of the Battle of Marengo. Napoleon's army has caused chaos and disarray throughout all Italy. Against this background of political turmoil stands Floria Tosca, Rome's famous and most beautiful opera singer. To save her lover, Cavaradossi, she must sacrifice her virtue to the evil Baron Scarpia. Can the power of love and honour ever prevail against the forces of corruption and betrayal? Tosca is a moving and passionate exploration of personal freedom, the cost of ideals and the choices forced on us by love.

Semi Staged. In this exciting, up-to-date semi-staging by Everybody Can! Opera, director Rebecca Louise Dale swaps Rome for present day London where corrupt Detective Chief Inspector Scarpia is spiralling out of control - manipulating situations and those around him to satisfy his increasing thirst for power. There is a powerful underlying emphasis on mental health and questions are raised as to why a man who is in a position of power would choose to abuse that power rather than initiate and implement positive change.
