Verdi's Falstaff

To mark the end of this year’s Shakespeare 400 celebrations, the Cambridge Philharmonic proudly presents a semi-staged concert performance of one of the greatest comic operas ever written. “Tutto nel mondo è burla!” says Sir John Falstaff: ‘all the world’s a joke!’
Award-winning young director Daisy Evans and an all-star cast, led by Keel Watson in the title role, will bring Verdi’s final opera to the West Road stage. Following critically- acclaimed, sold-out productions of The Adventures of Pinocchio, Carmen and Peter Grimes, this performance of Falstaff promises to be a highlight of the season.
“Keel Watson was born to play Falstaff.” London Evening Standard
Cost: £15, £20, £25, £30 (Students and under-18s £10 on the door)
