A passionate love story.
A hero bound by fate.
A lover left behind.Dido & Aeneasis a love story for the ages. Bringing together exhilarating acrobatics and extraordinary music, this production is an opera for today.
Aeneas is a hero caught between his destiny and desire. Dido is the woman he must leave behind. For these star-crossed lovers, fate and romance are on a collision course, and when the smoke clears, Dido’s heart is found among the wreckage.
Purcell’s early opera gave the world one of the most poignant scores ever written and laid the foundation for every opera that came after.
Now, experience the power ofDido & Aeneasin a new staging from Circa Artistic Director Yaron Lifschitz, which sets “a new benchmark for opera production in Australia ” (Limelight). Expect jaw-dropping physical feats from Circa’s talented ensemble alongside stunning voices in this follow-up to last year’s sell-out successOrpheus & Eurydice. Libby McDonnell’s glamorous costumes are chic creations of luxe materials and strong silhouettes, and Lifschitz has created a stark, slick set.
It’s always a delight to welcome a rising star home, and we have two in this production: tenor Nicholas Jones is currently a principal artist with Opéra national de Paris and mezzo soprano Anna Dowsley returns to sing Dido after great success overseas. Hear her perform as the doomed Queen of Carthage and sing her famous lament ‘When I am Laid in Earth’.

Best Things to Do

M69***65

Taronga Zoo is located on a hillside, and the animals can overlook Sydney Harbour. It is a rare zoo that attracts the same scenery as the animals. The park is not small and the terrain is undulating, but the route is clear and suitable for slowly strolling. There are many types of animals, especially local koalas, kangaroos and platypus, and the children are particularly excited to see. You can also overlook the entire harbour by taking the cable car, and the scenery is unexpected.

The Wandering Architects

The Sydney Opera House isn&rsquo;t just an icon&mdash;it&rsquo;s a masterpiece that takes your breath away up close. The soaring sails, crafted with impossible precision, glow at sunrise and dazzle under spotlights at night. Inside, the acoustics are as brilliant as the architecture, whether you catch a symphony or just take a tour. More than a photo op, it&rsquo;s a living work of art&mdash;where every angle reveals new genius. Utterly unmissable.
